Abstract: Abstract Rabinowitch's article [1] offers an outline of synthetic connectomics where, in analogy to synthetic biology, connectomes are constructed. Rather than building connectomes in a computer model, say by observing artificial neural networks, the idea… read more here.

Abstract: Superfast muscles (SFMs) are extremely fast synchronous muscles capable of contraction rates up to 250 Hz, enabling precise motor execution at the millisecond time scale. SFM phenotypes have been discovered in most major vertebrate lineages,… read more here.
