We propose the "trans-scale thermal signaling" in muscle, where we study the biological effects of heat that is released at the scale of single biological molecules, then propagates throughout the hierarchy of biological systems up to the scale of individual organisms.
We develop methods to quantitatively examine and manipulate the thermal signaling.
