Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011
I've dropped some hints in the past that my relationship with ScienceBlogs would be...altered. Well, I've decided to leave. Mostly, it had to do with the issue of pseudonymity, although I'm very excited to hang out my own shingle once again. I don't want to rehash the issue of pseudonymity,…

Chick Locomotion

Researchers wanted to know if the movements in the egg prepared chicks for their big debut. They synchronized electromyograms for leg muscles, force, and video from late-stage embryos on days 15, 18 and 20 of their incubation. What they discovered was that the repetitive movements…
