  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Load carrying with flexible bamboo poles: optimization of a coupled oscillator system
    Ryan T. Schroeder, John E. A. Bertram, Van Son Nguyen, Van Vinh Hac, James L. Croft
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb203760 doi: 10.1242/jeb.203760 Published 4 December 2019

    Highlighted Article: An optimization model predicts body–load interactions that compare to experienced rural Vietnamese farmworkers carrying substantial loads suspended on flexible bamboo poles. A work-minimizing strategy indicates energy-saving gait adaptations.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Lower extremity joints and muscle groups in the human locomotor system alter mechanical functions to meet task demand
    Daniel J. Kuhman, Christopher P. Hurt
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb206383 doi: 10.1242/jeb.206383 Published 21 October 2019

    Summary: Joints and muscle groups in the human locomotor system alter their mechanical function to meet demands of the locomotor task being performed.

  • REVIEW
    Navigation and the developing brain
    Nora S. Newcombe
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb186460 doi: 10.1242/jeb.186460 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Spatial development in humans takes a decade or more to unfold, and involves tuning initial systems in response to changing motor capacities and environmental feedback.

  • MECHANISMS OF MUSCLE CONTRACTION AND EXCITATION CONTRACTION COUPLING
    Myosin isoforms and the mechanochemical cross-bridge cycle
    Jonathan Walklate, Zoltan Ujfalusi, Michael A. Geeves
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 168-174; doi: 10.1242/jeb.124594

    Summary: Mammals express more than 11 different muscle myosin isoforms. Studies of different isoforms and the effect of mutations in these isoforms illustrate how myosin is adapted for specific functions.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Planar covariation of limb elevation angles during bipedal locomotion in common quails (Coturnix coturnix)
    Naomichi Ogihara, Takaaki Oku, Emanuel Andrada, Reinhard Blickhan, John A. Nyakatura, Martin S. Fischer
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 3968-3973; doi: 10.1242/jeb.109355
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Biomechanics of spontaneous overground walk-to-run transition
    Veerle Segers, Kristof De Smet, Ine Van Caekenberghe, Peter Aerts, Dirk De Clercq
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 3047-3054; doi: 10.1242/jeb.087015
  • METHODS & TECHNIQUES
    New methods for field collection of human skin volatiles and perspectives for their application in the chemical ecology of human–pathogen–vector interactions
    Laurent Dormont, Jean-Marie Bessière, Doyle McKey, Anna Cohuet
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 2783-2788; doi: 10.1242/jeb.085936
