Generating fast-twitch myotubes in vitro using an optogenetic-based, quantitative contractility assay

K. Hennig, D. Hardman, D. Barata, I. I. Martins, M. O. Bernabeu, E. R. Gomes, W. Roman

This study uses an optogenetic contractility assay to generate fast-twitch myotubes in vitro, showing increased contractile function and fiber type shift.

An in vitro - agent based modelling approach to optimisation of culture medium for generating muscle cells

D. Hardman, K. Hennig, E. R. Gomes, W. Roman, M. O. Bernabeu

The paper uses an agent-based model to predict optimal culture media for muscle cell generation, finding trade-offs between cell quantity and quality.

A flagellate-to-amoeboid switch in the closest living relatives of animals

T. Brunet, M. Albert, W. Roman, D. Spitzer, N. King

This study shows that choanoflagellates can switch from a flagellate to an amoeboid phenotype under spatial confinement, suggesting myosin-mediated amoeboid motility was present in the last common ancestor of animals and choanoflagellates.
