What does it mean to be "neuromuscular"? 🧠💪
Our commentary in @EJAP_official shows the term is often applied arbitrarily and without insight into neural and muscular control of human performance @Dale_Harris36@iHealthSportVU

Congratulations to IPAN's A/Prof Severine Lamon on her successful 2025 #ARCDiscoveryProject grant- she hopes to explore the role of sex in ageing muscle and bridge the gap in our knowledge of sex-specific age-related muscle decline.
PhD opportunity📢
Join IPAN's Prof @daly_prof and Dr @orssattolucas in investigating the neural and motor function adaptations to exercise, nutritional, and/or pharmacological interventions in ageing and disease.
