The Alternative Muscle Club is holding a one-day meeting on August 29, 2014 in San Diego for young investigators to present their research in muscle development, structure and function, regeneration, and biomechanics in a relaxed environment. The meeting provides an opportunity for attendees to build their scientific network, learn about other projects, and boost their career, with no registration fees required. Presentation topics include cardiac and skeletal muscle development, epigenetic regulation, myopathies, muscle proteins, ion channels, calcium handling, biophysics, contractile dynamics, bioengineering, mechanotransduction, musculoskeletal modeling, myogenic differentiation, cardiac repair, stem cell biology, and applications for muscle therapeutics.
