Astrocytes: Orchestrators of brain gas exchange and oxygen homeostasis
Abstract figure legend Oxygen and carbon dioxide enter the body via breathing; in the brain astrocytes play a key role balancing oxygen delivery with carbon dioxide removal. Abstract If we consider neurons like muscles during exercise, the demand for oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination is constantly changing.

Understanding how animals interact with their environment across life stages is key for conservation. In our long‐term study of the Blunt‐headed tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa) in the tropical rainforest of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, we tracked over 240 individuals and found age‐related differences in environmental preferences.

Sustainable Energy Through Pyrolysis: Bridging Innovation With Implementation in Biomass Conversion
Biomass pyrolysis is a promising thermochemical process for converting organic feedstocks into bio‐oil, biochar, and syngas, with potential to reduce fossil fuel dependence, mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and address bio‐waste challenges.

Snake head shape is weakly constrained by phylogeny but strongly influenced by ecology. Significant convergence was detected in fossorial and aquatic snakes, while diet mainly drove morphological variation without convergence. ABSTRACT Morphological convergence—where distantly related species evolve similar traits in response to shared ecological ...
