Science needs women, and women need science. 🌍 In recognition of @UNESCO International Day of Women and Girls in Science, ISEK invited some female student members to share their stories. This is what they said 👇 #WomenInScience #Equity #Diversity #Inclusion @dani_c014

It was great catching up with @HaHalisa90 and many others over the break. Love hearing all the neat Ph.D work she's doing with @BrianHDalton. Although the master's experience is short, there is something special about being part of the initial spark for students' careers.

Single muscle fibre contractile function with ageing

Abstract figure legend Advancing age is accompanied by decrements in whole-muscle strength and power that exceed the losses in muscle mass. The single fibre preparation has been instrumental in...

Almost hot off the press: Sex differences in motor unit behaviour: A review. doi.org/10.1016/j.jek.2022.1…. Hopefully this is the start to more research in this area of study with many gaps. Only 10 female-only studies and 11 directly looking at sex differences to date.

Older females may want to focus on training muscle power to improve balance control. – at Kelowna, British Columbia

Over-corrective balance responses may be linked to greater dorsiflexor activity, greater postural sway and/or less muscle power in older females than young. – at Kelowna, British Columbia

Older females are weaker and less powerful than younger females but have larger corrective balance responses to postural disruptions. – at Kelowna, British Columbia
Just like that it’s a wrap for #ISPGR2022 presentations for Dalton’s Spin Lab. So thankful for all the new connections, and getting to hear about all the wonderful things our field is doing.
