The ankle's ability to regenerate cartilage uses the same mechanisms that enable some animals to grow new limbs, and it could ...

The Mets, already down three starting pitchers, are awaiting test results on Canning.

However, the role of the ankle strategy during uneven surface walking is currently unknown, and elucidating this role could help us understand the evolution of the hominin AJC and its potential ...

When they added human-like ankle muscles to the Lucy model, the energy cost was comparable to that of other animals of a similar size.

The human ankle is a complex thing, the point where the shin bone (tibia), calf bone (fibula) and talus (heel) meet. Scientists call it a ‘hinged synovial joint’ because movement primarily ...

A mysterious human species may have been the first to bury their dead If the claims are true, the behavior by Homo naledi—a baffling, small-brained member of the human family tree—would pre ...

The directional mechanical impedance of the human ankle was identified from subjects in a standing posture with varying levels of muscle activity. The impedance modeled the different torque responses ...
