Scientists reveal unprecedented insights into human limb development, including the many intricate processes that govern their formation. Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form ...

A review of instruments used to assess upper-limb function in patients with neuromuscular diseases found that more tools are needed to address specific diseases. In most neuromuscular diseases (NMDs), ...

A new study gives insight into how limb development evolved in vertebrates. The findings identify a gene that plays a central role in the evolution of limb development in vertebrates. By manipulating ...

Scientists at EPFL have created a scalable 3D organoid model that captures key features of early limb development, revealing how a specialized signaling center shapes both cell identity and tissue ...

A glove and armband that gives people with upper limb prosthetics a sense of touch through haptic feedback is in development at the University of Bath, with unique at-home trials set to begin in the ...

The UAB Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Hand and Upper Extremity Section specializes in the research, education, diagnosis, and treatment of a spectrum of disorders and injuries of the upper ...

Scientists have created a spatial atlas of the incredible process of human limb development, including steps that show digits emerging from a bud as cells recede, instead of growing outward. With ...

Service members experience 25 million limited duty days annually due to injuries, most of which are musculoskeletal injuries, also known as MSKI. When on limited duty status, a service member may not ...

Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form from within a larger foundational bud, as intervening cells recede to reveal the digits beneath. This is among many processes captured ...
