• A Drosophila cardiac myosin increases jump muscle stretch activation and shortening deactivation

  By Dileep N Lobo, Keith Neal, Anne Rüggeberg, Eike A. Nickel| ScienceDirect@ Stretch activation (SA), a delayed increase in force production after rapid muscle lengthening, is critical to the function of vertebrate cardiac muscle and insect asynchronous indirect flight muscle. SA enables or increases power generation in muscle types used in a cyclical manner. Recently, myosin isoform expression has been implicated as a mechanism for varying the amplitude of SA in some muscle types.

• As an epidemiologist, I know how well contact tracing could work for coronavirus | Keith Neal

  By Keith Neal| The Guardian Verified As quarantine measures are slowly lifted in the UK, the virus will continue to spread unless the government puts in place a strategy to curb the rate of infection. Contact tracing, a practice long used in public health to control infectious diseases, will be crucial to driving down the rate of infection, or R, and minimising further cases of coronavirus.
