When and why to give shorebirds a head start

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

Tunnelling Nanotube‐Mediated Lysosome Sharing Promotes Osteocyte Survival via Transcellular Autophagy

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This study provides the first definitive identification of tunnelling nanotubes (TNTs) between cultured osteocytes and shows TNT‐mediated lysosome transfer from healthy to stressed cells, restoring autophagic flux and preventing apoptosis. This discovery of transcellular autophagy reveals a new survival mechanism in osteocytes, offering potential ...

Reframing Justice in Healthcare AI: An Ubuntu‐Based Approach for Africa

Developing World Bioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is an ongoing debate on how to balance the benefits and risks of artificial intelligence (AI), especially in healthcare. In resource‐constrained settings, such as Africa, where access to quality care remains a challenge, AI has the potential to improve efficiency, accessibility, and patient outcomes.

Applied theory makeovers

Economica, EarlyView.
Abstract I argue that economists' distinction between ‘pure’ and ‘applied’ economic theory is often based on papers' stylistic markers rather than their methodology or scope. I illustrate this point with a model of price competition for boundedly rational consumers, due to Piccione and Spiegler. I first present its original, ‘pure style’ version.

What controls forest litter decomposition? A coordinated distributed teabag experiment across ten mountains

Ecography, EarlyView.
Litter decomposition in mountainous forest ecosystems is an essential process that affects carbon and nutrient cycling. However, the contribution of litter decomposition to terrestrial ecosystems is difficult to estimate accurately because of the limited comparability of different studies and limited data on local microclimatic and non‐climatic factors.

Kant on Rational Reference: Theology as transcendental philosophy

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract The Critical Kant famously held that our cognition requires intuition, or essentially singular representation. Kant is also often understood as taking a dismissive attitude toward his rationalist predecessors' accounts of how we cognize singulars or individuals.

The Master's Problem: Revisiting Hegel's Critique of Social Domination

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper argues for a reinterpretation of Hegel's internal critique of the master in his famous ‘Master–Slave Dialectic.’ Hegel argues that, in addition to the evident injustice suffered by the enslaved, the arrangement also undermines the master's own purposes.

Spinoza on Humans as Social Animals

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Spinoza repeatedly suggests that humans are set apart from other animals by their rational and moral abilities. Yet he disparages the traditional definition of the human as a ‘rational animal’ and several of his other views suggest that these abilities are not sufficient by themselves to characterize human nature.
