The problem with academia is that those who truly know often don't teach, and those who usually teach often don't truly know.

RTs appreciated: I have an open position for a PostDoc in the newly formed Neural Health Research Laboratory at Syracuse University. Funding available for 2 yrs. It is a tight timeline as I'm looking for candidates that can start right away. sujobopps.com/postings/105821

Together with Jakob Škarabot & @SimonAvrillon, we are happy to share a new postdoc opportunity. We are looking for someone to lead and support an international collaboration to decode motor pools during dynamic motor tasks. See link for more information: sites.google.com/mun.ca/ni4m/re…

Great work by Ricardo Mesquita !

🚨Retweets appreciated!🚨 I’m searching for my next rockstar PhD student UCF Kinesiology! Join UCF CNS Lab in sunny Orlando ☀️ where we work hard but laugh at our failures along the way. Future work will primarily focus on neuromuscular aging and disuse.

Muscle power outperforms strength in predicting mortality. In power training movements are executed AS FAST AS POSSIBLE (concentric phase), differing from “traditional” resistance training in which speed of execution is not prescribed or defined.
