Developmental Plasticity and Behavioural Evolution in Rodents: Insights From African Striped Mice (Rhabdomys)

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Our review synthesizes how early‐life experiences shape behavioural development in rodents, drawing on developmental plasticity, non‐genetic inheritance and epigenetic mechanisms. Using African striped mice (Rhabdomys) and other small mammal systems as case studies, it presents an integrative framework linking parental care, developmental pathways and ...

The relationship between intergenerational mobility and equality of opportunity

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Among economists, the analysis of social mobility and the role of parental background is largely carried out in two separate strands of research. The intergenerational mobility literature estimates parent–child persistence in some outcome of interest, such as income.

Effects of military base closures on young adults

The Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how young adults respond to local labor market disruptions caused by military base closures in Sweden between 1998 and 2005. The results show substantial differences in responses between men and women, reflecting the sharp gender imbalance in military roles.

Maturation of spinal motor control through developmental changes in ion currents

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Ion channels of spinal neurons have been shown to change during development in a wide range of species. These changes occur at specific stages of development. An important developmental process is the maturation of motor control by which the body acquires new movements or refines movements already present.
