Thomas Storer is an accomplished exercise physiologist with over 40 years of experience in clinical research settings. He has successfully contributed to several previous and ongoing, randomized controlled trials including research with function promoting therapies, e.g., resistance exercise training, as well as pharmacologic therapies including androgens, SARMs, and myostatin antagonists. Cohorts investigated have included healthy young and older men and women, mobility limited older men, frail older men and women with mobility limitations, men and women with HIV-infection, COPD, end-stage renal disease, and prostate cancer. I have also conducted feasibility studies of resistance exercise training in morbidly obese individuals. I have been the Chief Exercise Physiologist for several multi-center, randomized controlled trials including the Testosterone-Trials (T-Trials). I was co-chair of the Physical Components Committee of a multi-center pragmatic trial on fall prevention, STRIDE funded by PCORI. I have over 130 peer-reviewed publications and am the coauthor of a text on cardiopulmonary exercise testing and interpretation. In addition, I have contributed 12 chapters for textbooks on exercise assessments and or, training and prescription in COPD, Chronic Kidney Disease, and anabolic effects of androgens on skeletal muscle. I am the former Director of the Laboratory of Exercise Physiology and Physical Function at Mass General Brigham Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and have served in similar capacities at Boston University School of Medicine and institutions of higher education in California.
