Out of This World Research at Brock University: Space Flight’s Impact on Female Mice Reproductive Health
NASA's SpaceX CRS-29 launched on November 9th, a commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station (ISS) that was also carrying scientific experiments and technology demonstrations. Included amongst these was the Rodent Research-20 (RR-20) payload, the contents of which will be studied by Brock University's Dr. Val Fajardo and his team using Aurora Scientific equipment upon its return.
Mechanical Control of Relaxation Using Intact Cardiac Trabeculae
Melissa Bukowski and colleagues describe and demonstrate a method to measure mechanical control of relaxation or the strain dependence of muscle relaxation in rodent cardiac trabecula.
Excellence, Innovation, and Collaboration: Key Research at the MHRC
This past April, we partnered with InsideScientific and the Muscle Health Research Centre (MHRC) at York University, a one-of-a-kind facility that fosters an interdisciplinary approach to the study of muscle physiology. We interviewed three keystone researchers who are shaping the future of skeletal muscle health: David Hood, PhD, Peter Backx, PhD, and Ali Abdul-Sater, PhD.
Excellence, Innovation, and Collaboration: Student Research at the MHRC
This past April, we partnered with InsideScientific and the Muscle Health Research Centre (MHRC) at York University, a one-of-a-kind facility that fosters an interdisciplinary approach to the study of muscle physiology. We had the privilege of interviewing a number of faculty and students to highlight their research, as well as the opportunities provided to them by the MHRC.
Industry Insights with Chris Rand from Aurora Scientific
Chris Rand, MSc, Sales and Marketing Manager, delves into the start and evolution of Aurora Scientific on this episode of #ShareScience, and our journey within the preclinical research world. He also discusses our path into the neuroscience space, and future directions the company is headed towards.
Functional Recovery of the Musculoskeletal System Following Injury – Leveraging the Large Animal Model
Watch Dr. Sarah Greising discuss the current pathophysiologic understanding of the skeletal muscle remaining following traumatic musculoskeletal injuries.
Excellence, Innovation, and Collaboration: A Day at the MHRC with Arthur Cheng
Interviewing Dr. Arthur Cheng at the Muscle Health Research Centre (MHRC), York University, an innovative research centre that facilitates the interdisciplinary study of muscle biology and the importance of skeletal muscle to the overall health and well-being of Canadians. Dr. Cheng's lab primarily investigates the mechanisms of skeletal muscle weakness and fatigue, and focuses on how calcium handling affects these mechanisms.
Excellence, Innovation, and Collaboration: A Day at the MHRC with Chris Perry
Interviewing Dr. Christopher Perry at the Muscle Health Research Centre (MHRC), York University, an innovative research centre that facilitates the interdisciplinary study of muscle biology and the importance of skeletal muscle to the overall health and well-being of Canadians. Dr. Perry's lab studies metabolic dysregulation in murine models of muscle weakness disorders.
Talking Real Science with Chris Perry
Christopher Perry, PhD, an Associate Professor at York University with the School of Kinesiology & Health Science joined us to talk in detail about his career path that led him to study regulation of skeletal muscle metabolism. As a dedicated customer, Chris specifically highlights how the 1300A 3-in-1 Whole Animal System helps achieve his research goals.
Investigating a Novel Regulator of Atrial Contractility
Dr. David Barefield gives an in-depth discussion on his research investigating the role of the MyBP-HL protein in atrial dysfunction.
Identification and Classification of Tongue-Innervating Mechanoreceptors
Join Yalda Moayedi, PhD, for a discussion on how tongue-innervating neurons can be clearly identified and classified according to their mechanosensory functionalities.
Musculoskeletal Complications of Cancer and its Treatments
In this webinar Dr. Bonetto presents evidence that bone preservation directly impacts muscle size and function in cachexia, thus also contributing to unraveling novel pathogenetic mechanisms and opening new avenues for treatment.
