Dr. Jamie L. Barger
Jamie L. Barger, Ph.D. is Head, Project Management,
Lifegen
Technologies. He joined LifeGen Technologies in 2005 after
completing an
NIH Postdoctoral Traineeship with Dr. Richard Weindruch at the
University of Wisconsin Madison where he investigated the bioactivity of
adipose tissue in calorie-restricted mice and rhesus
monkeys.
Jamie coauthored
A Low Dose of Dietary Resveratrol Partially Mimics Caloric
Restriction and Retards Aging Parameters in Mice,
Impact of endotoxin on UCP homolog mRNA abundance, thermoregulation,
and
mitochondrial proton leak kinetics,
Tissue-specific depression of mitochondrial proton leak and substrate
oxidation in hibernating arctic ground squirrels,
Energy Restriction Lowers the Expression of Genes Linked to
Inflammation, the Cytoskeleton, the Extracellular Matrix, and
Angiogenesis in Mouse Adipose Tissue,
Consumption of endophyte-infected fescue seeds and osmoregulation in
white-footed mice, and

the transgenic era,
Jamie earned his B.S. in Biology from Truman State University in 1994.
He earned his Ph.D. in 2002 from the University of Alaska Fairbanks
where
he investigated the molecular basis of metabolic regulation in
hibernating arctic ground squirrels.
