The force behind our strength: How mechanical processes regulate muscle development

Skeletal muscles grow and regenerate as individual precursor cells—called myoblasts—fuse into long fibers from which mature muscle fibers develop. How they coordinate this process and form functional muscles is not yet fully understood. A research team at the Max-Planck-Zentrum f This story matters for Science & Discovery readers tracking mech.
