Abstract: The human soleus muscle is anatomically divided into four separate anatomical compartments. The functional role of this compartmentalisation remains unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that the common synaptic input to motor units between the… read more here.

Abstract: Declines in motor function with advancing age have been attributed to changes occurring at all levels of the neuromuscular system. However, the impact of aging on the control of muscle force by spinal motor neurons… read more here.
