Anthony Scimè is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Science at York University, affiliated with the Biology Graduate Program. His research explores the intersection of metabolism and stem cell biology, with implications for diseases like type II diabetes, obesity, and cancer. Contact him at ascime@yorku.ca.

• Research Focus: Metabolism's role in stem cell fate decisions (quiescence, activation, differentiation, self-renewal) in muscle and adipose tissue, linking to metabolic disorders, cancer, and regenerative medicine.

Publication Trends: Recent work investigates mitochondrial dynamics, metabolic checkpoints, and transcriptional regulators (e.g., p107) in stem cell regulation. Studies span muscle biology, adipocyte lineage, cancer-associated stem cells, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
