Reducing the metabolic rate of walking and running with a versatile, portable exosuit
Lowering locomotion's metabolic cost Walking and running require different gaits, with each type of motion putting a greater bias on different muscles and joints. Kim et al. developed a soft, fully portable, lightweight exosuit that is able to reduce the

Physiological demands of running at 2-hour marathon race pace.
The requirements of running a 2 hour marathon have been extensively debated but the actual physiological demands of running at ~21.1 km/h have never been reported.

A Groundwork for Allostatic Neuro-Education
We propose to enliven educational practice by marrying a conception of education as guided human development, to an advanced scientific understanding of the brain known as allostasis (stability through change).

Transition to forefoot strike reduces load rates more effectively than altered cadence
Background: Excessive vertical impacts at landing are associated with common running injuries. Two primary gait-retraining interventions aimed at reducing impact forces are transition to forefoot strike and increasing cadence. The objective of this study

Over the twentieth century universities in the industrialized world have evolved from being "universities of culture" to "universities of innovation." Policy makers and universities themselves see their one of their major roles as supporting industrial innovation and thus economic growth.

The role of lipid post-translational modification in plant developmental processes
Most eukaryotic proteins are post-translationally modified, and modification has profound effects on protein function. One key modification is the attachment of a lipid group to certain amino acids; this typically facilitates subcellular targeting ...

Five-Loop Running of the QCD Coupling Constant. [PDF]
We analytically compute the five-loop term in the beta function which governs the running of α_{s}-the quark-gluon coupling constant in QCD. The new term leads to a reduction of the theory uncertainty in α_{s} taken at the Z-boson scale as extracted from

AbstractThe theoretical literature on bank runs has modeled depositors’ withdrawal decision as a one-off choice, made simultaneously by all depositors. Our game-theoretic framework gives depositors a heterogeneous, stochastic opportunity to change their minds about withdrawing their money.

A regional look at HANPP: human consumption is increasing, NPP is not
Abdi et al (2014 Environ. Res. Lett. http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/9/9/094003 9 http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/9/9/094003 ), have adapted the concept of comparing supply and demand of annual plant production known as human appropriation of net
