Michael Bárány: a recollection.

摘要

In this special edition of the Journal of Muscle Research and Cell Motility, we recall the lives and scientific contributions of Michael and Kate Bárány, who died in 2011. Michael and Kate were Holocaust survivors who went on to become leading researchers in muscle contraction. Their research topics included myosin isoforms, phosphorylation as a regulator of muscle contraction and the application of NMR to study muscle metabolism. They were deeply committed to science and to fostering the careers of young investigators.
