The lack of legal protections in the United States to prevent commercializing the dead for education and research: Consequences and risks to anatomists

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of minimum legal standards for body donation programs undermines recent strides by anatomy professionals to promote ethical best practices in the United States (US). In particular, the commercialization of the dead by nontransplant tissue banks poses a risk to the public trust in academic body donation programs.

Parenting Stress and Stressful Life Events Among Caregivers of Toddler Siblings of Autistic and Non‐Autistic Children

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study measured experiences of parenting stress and stressful life events in caregivers of families with a toddler who has either an autistic or non‐autistic older sibling(s). Caregivers of toddlers (12–18 months old) with older autistic siblings (Sibs‐autism; n = 58) and toddlers with older non‐autistic siblings (Sibs‐NA; n = 46 ...

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

The flexible, the stereotyped and the in‐between: putting together the combinatory tool use origins hypothesis

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

Corticosterone selectively decreases humoral immunity in female eiders during incubation

, 2007
Immunity is hypothesized to share limited resources with other physiological functions and this may partly account for the fitness costs of reproduction.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Competition between wild and captive-bred Penaeus plebejus and implications for stock enhancement [PDF]

, 2012
The mechanisms that drive density dependence are rarely studied in the applied context of population management. We examined the potential for competition for food and shelter and the resulting demographic density dependence to influence how well ...
