Mountains, Kurakas and Mummies: Transformations in Indigenous Andean Sovereignty
Población & Sociedad, 2018 This essay argues that Andean mountains have not always embodied indigenous sovereignty as they do today. The lordly titles that mountains now bear were, until the second half of the colonial period, held by ancestral mummies and living indigenous ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract High‐altitude hypoxia elicits several profound physiological responses, including substantial increases in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA); however, the association of this heightened MSNA with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular haemodynamics remains unclear in lowlanders and indigenous highlander populations.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract High‐altitude chronic hypoxia can induce excessive erythrocytosis (EE, defined as a haemoglobin concentration of ≥21 g/dL in men), leading to hyperviscosity and promoting endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to assess whether EE affects the retinal vascular phenotype and the ophthalmological vascular response to CO2.

DiversityThe systematics of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) has been controversial. Some mammalogists consider the white-tailed deer to be a single species, whereas others consider it to consist of multiple species.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend We investigated how environmental hypoxia and genetic adaptation to high altitudes jointly impact the development of the placental exchange surface in ways that might protect fetal growth potential. We used wild‐derived, lab‐born North American deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) from low‐elevation and high‐elevation environments (

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Tibetan women livingat high altitude exhibit distinct physiological traits that can enhance oxygen transport in chronic hypoxia. Menopausal status influences cardiopulmonary responses to hypoxia in women living at low altitudes.

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.ABSTRACT Hantaviruses are emerging zoonotic pathogens of increasing global public health significance. Their epidemiological landscape is rapidly changing due to ecological disruption, climate variability, urbanisation, and evolving human–animal interfaces.

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia
American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 480-493, September 2026.ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 494-510, September 2026.ABSTRACT The evolutionary study of human dispersal is a key topic in biological anthropology. However, recent research has revealed inconsistencies between molecular and anatomical data across different timescales and geographic regions. Despite increased interdisciplinary dialogue, these discordances are rarely analyzed in depth or interpreted for ...
