Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve (2016)
Journal Article
Karbiener, M., Jarvis, J. C., Perkins, J. D. M., Lanmueller, H., Schmoll, M., Rode, H. S., …Gugatschka, M. (2016). Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve. PLoS ONE, 11(11), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0167367

Age related atrophy of the laryngeal muscles -mainly the thyroarytenoid muscle (TAM)- leads to a glottal gap and consequently to a hoarse and dysphonic voice that significantly affects quality of life. The aim of our study was to reverse this atrophy... Read More about Reversing Age Related Changes of the Laryngeal Muscles by Chronic Electrostimulation of the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve.

Preferred gait and walk–run transition speeds in ostriches measured using GPS-IMU sensors (2016)
Journal Article
Daley, M. A., Channon, A. J., Nolan, G. S., & Hall, J. (2016). Preferred gait and walk–run transition speeds in ostriches measured using GPS-IMU sensors. Journal of Experimental Biology, 219(20), 3301-3308. https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.142588

The ostrich (Struthio camelus) is widely appreciated as a fast and agile bipedal athlete, and is a useful comparative bipedal model for human locomotion. Here, we used GPS-IMU sensors to measure naturally selected gait dynamics of ostriches roaming f...

Exposure of a tendon extracellular matrix to synovial fluid triggers endogenous and engrafted cell death: A mechanism for failed healing of intrathecal tendon injuries (2016)
Journal Article
Garvican, E. R., Salavati, M., Smith, R. K. W., & Dudhia, J. (2016). Exposure of a tendon extracellular matrix to synovial fluid triggers endogenous and engrafted cell death: A mechanism for failed healing of intrathecal tendon injuries. Connective Tissue Research, 58(5), 438-446. https://doi.org/10.1080/03008207.2016.1245726

Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of normal synovial fluid (SF) on exposed endogenous tendon-derived cells (TDC) and engrafted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within the tendon extracellular matrix. Methods: Explants from eq...

Foot pressure distributions during walking in African elephants (Loxodonta africana) (2016)
Journal Article
Panagiotopoulou, O., Pataky, T. C., Day, M., Hensman, S., Hutchinson, J. R., & Clemente, C. J. (2016). Foot pressure distributions during walking in African elephants (Loxodonta africana). Royal Society Open Science, 3(10), 160203. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.160203

Elephants, the largest living land mammals, have evolved a specialized foot morphology to help reduce locomotor pressures while supporting their large body mass. Peak pressures that could cause tissue damage are mitigated passively by the anatomy of... Read More about Foot pressure distributions during walking in African elephants (Loxodonta africana).
