I noticed there wasn’t a starter pack for skeletal muscle scientists, so I made one as the muscle community continues to migrate here. Drop a comment if you’d like to be included! go.bsky.app/3hKK1WX

I didn’t see a general starter pack for people in the #BME and #BioE communities so I started to put one together. Let me know if I’ve missed anyone in particular or if you’d like to be added! #ScienceSky #AcademicSky go.bsky.app/9nMCGLK

🤩How does exercise keep us strong? Led by Casper Soendenbroe, motor neurons are better supported by muscle stem cells and fibroblasts from life long exercisers v inactive ppl🏃 #keepmoving 🙏 @benchazaud.bsky.social #TeamLyon 🙏 @lundbeckfonden @ismcopenhagen.bsky.social doi.org/10.1111/acel...
