DOI: 10.1002/cnm.3245
Abstract: Biofabricated nano- and microstructured scaffolds have exhibited great potential for nerve tissue regeneration and functional restoration, and pre-vascularization and biotransportation within 3D fascicle structures are critical. Unfortunately, an ideal internal fascicle and microvascular model of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00421-022-04905-7
Abstract: When rate of force development is increased, neural drive increases. There is presently no accepted explanation for this effect. We propose and experimentally test the theory that a small increase in rate of force development… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2017.08.022
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Polyneuropathies are increasingly analyzed by ultrasound. Summarizing, diffuse enlargement is typical in Charcot-Marie Tooth type 1 (CMT1a), regional enlargement occurs in inflammatory neuropathies. However, a distinction of subtypes is still challenging. Therefore, this study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2017.09.019
Abstract: Ultrasonography is a useful technique to study muscle contractions in vivo, however larger muscles like vastus lateralis may be difficult to visualise with smaller, commonly used transducers. Fascicle length is often estimated using linear trigonometry… read more here.
