The journal of Sports and Sciences will now require mandatory sample size estimation and justification www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... This is an excellent step that will improve scientific papers. I expect many other journals will follow.
Sample size estimation revisited

📢 Paper alert! 🚨 Do you use ultrasound imaging to look at muscle architecture changes during movement? Then UltraTimTrack is for you! We leveraged the benefits of its predecessors, UltraTrack + TimTrack, to enable automatic, objective, and accurate fascicle tracking: peerj.com/articles/cs-...
UltraTimTrack: a Kalman-filter-based algorithm to track muscle fascicles in ultrasound image sequences
Background Brightness-mode (B-mode) ultrasound is a valuable tool to non-invasively image skeletal muscle architectural changes during movement, but automatically tracking muscle fascicles remains a m...

Some of the big news we report: "...suggesting that upon activation, [I-band] titin stiffness increased ~2.2 to 3.1 times compared to the passive state" #MyoBlue
Anthony Hessel, PhD@hesselanthony.bsky.social · 2y ago🚨📢Paper alert! Real progress on identifying why residual force enhancement occurs in skeletal muscle! This was a study I dreamed about since grad school. Please share! 🔬💪🧪 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
🚀✨ Abstract submission is NOW OPEN for the XXX Congress of the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB2025) in Stockholm! 🇸🇪📚 🏃♂️🔍 Are you ready to share your groundbreaking research in biomechanics? 💡 Submit your abstract and be part of the global stage! 🗣️🌐
Here we are, ready to share the latest research in biomechanics! We're excited to connect with our readers, authors, reviewers, and editors here - follow us to stay updated on cutting-edge advancements!
After a long process, I will soon have a paper out at PNAS that explores the molecular mechanisms of residual force enhancement using some cool mouse models and small-angle Xray diffraction. It is not just about titin-based forces, per se, but they run the show 😎. Details OTW #titin #MuscleScience
Latest work from Brent Raiteri out in J Physiol! Residual force depression is NOT accurately predicted by muscle work (as usually assumed) but rather by the number of active muscle fibres during shortening. Funded by @dfg_public. Check out the OA-link: physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/...
