Metabolism is the processing of chemicals by cells and organisms to maintain life. Mitochondria are central to the energy requiring processes of animal cells. This research will integrate how large scale environmental factors outside an animal impact processes on the inside at the mitochondrial level. In turn responses at the small scale metabolic level may limit the whole animal responses to challenge and their ability to survive and adapt. New insight will be gained on a broad range of issues we are currently facing, including the susceptibility of animals to environmental stressors and how diet influences an individuals metabolism, growth and development.

代谢是细胞和生物体为维持生命而进行的化学物质处理。线粒体是动物细胞能量需求过程的核心。这项研究将整合动物外部的大规模环境因素如何在线粒体水平上影响内部过程。反过来，小规模代谢水平的反应可能会限制整个动物对挑战的反应以及它们的生存和适应能力。新的见解将获得广泛的问题，我们目前面临的，包括动物的易感性环境压力和饮食如何影响个人的新陈代谢，生长和发育。
