The year 2025 marked the ninetieth since a fossil hominin occipital bone was discovered in Swanscombe, southeast England. In subsequent years, its parietal bones were found, producing what remains the oldest partial cranium from Britain today. In the earliest analyses, it was interpreted as a descendant of the infamous fraudulent fossil Piltdown Man ...

The ‘Out of Africa’ model that has dominated palaeoanthropology for nearly three decades was originally based on five elements: a recent ancestry to human populations; an African origin for the ancestral population; limited or no gene flow among archaic hominins and no admixture between modern humans and Neanderthals; a marked difference between the ...

Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and

Abstract Background and Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer therapy, offering improvements in survival across various malignancies. However, their toxicities pose a major challenge for cardio‐oncology units. Despite their growing importance, data on effectiveness of such specialized units in mitigating ICI‐associated ...

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

ABSTRACT The Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a globally distributed nonnative species that threatens native salmonids in coldwater streams. Understanding the factors regulating Brook Trout densities in coldwater refugia is critical to effective management, so we investigated (a) fine‐scale drivers of Brook Trout abundance and (b) factors ...

ABSTRACT Stories about a certain group can foster more positive attitudes toward that group, especially when they elicit identification with the story's characters/narrator. Drawing on narrative‐based interventions' literature and focusing on host society‐migrant relations, our study examined factors influencing the impact of story exposure on ...

Abstract Chromosome organization and repetitive DNA distribution are important components of genome evolution in teleost fishes but remain poorly characterized in many species of ecological and conservation relevance. We performed a detailed cytogenetic analysis of the southern pygmy perch, Nannoperca australis, a small freshwater species widely used ...

The Hidden Costs of Divestitures – Implications for the Commitment of the Remaining Employees
Abstract This study investigates the consequences of corporate divestitures from the largely neglected perspective of the divesting firm's remaining employees. Drawing on social exchange and psychological contract theory, we argue that divestitures – despite not involving direct job losses – can be perceived by the remaining employees as breaches of ...
