    Here is this week's literature update for keywords BIOMECH* or LOCOMOT*.

    Just a reminder that at my perogative, I don't list articles published in
    J. Biomechanics, conference abstracts or articles in languages other than
    English. No J. Biomech because I assume most everyone subscribes,
    Elsevier will automatically send you the table of contents via e-mail if
    you don't, and my database lags the publication substantially.
    No conference abstracts because they are hard to find and English only
    because I can't really tell what the article is about if the title is not
    in English. Also, I limit to macroscopic biomechanics, though cell
    biomechanics is a very hot area.

    UC Berkeley

    My pick for this week's most intriguing article based only on the title is:

    Le Bourg, Eric; Minois, Nadege.
    A mild stress, hypergravity exposure, postpones behavioral aging in
    Drosophila melanogaster.
    Experimental Gerontology, v.34, n.2, (1999. April): 157-172.
    (by the way, Drospophila are fruit flies)
