Dr. Horowitz is an exercise physiologist primarily interested in the regulation of fat and carbohydrate metabolism.  More specifically, his interests are focused on the regulation of fuel (substrate) mobilization and oxidation and how exercise influences this regulation.  The scope of his research is aimed at determining the impact of alterations in substrate metabolism on important health issues such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and advancing age.

Dr. Kraus' training and practice focuses on cardiac rehabilitation and prevention, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, exercise physiology and the genetics of cardio vascular disease.  His experience includes administration of cardiac rehabilitation programs, fitness centers and preventive cardiology programs that focus on lifestyle management strategies.  For four years, he was the Director of the Duke University Center for Living.  Over the past 20 years, his research efforts have focused on the basic mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle responses to normal physiological stimuli, such as exercise training, and abnormal responses, as occur in congestive heart failure, chronic spaceflight, and aging.  He also has conducted studies to help identify genetic markers and causative genes for the early onset of cardiovascular disease and other cardiovascular conditions, such as insulin resistance syndrome.
