Reduced Susceptibility to the Dunning–Kruger Effect in Autistic Employees

open access: yesAutism Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Evidence indicates that autistic individuals are less susceptible to social influence and cognitive biases than non‐autistic individuals. However, no studies have been conducted on the Dunning–Kruger effect (DKE) in autism. The DKE is a cognitive bias in which people with limited expertise in a specific domain overestimate their abilities. The

Uranium and Neptunium Accumulation by the Byssus of Mytilus galloprovincialis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 1, 2026.
Investigation of uranyl(VI) and neptunyl(V) uptake in mussel's byssus by combining in vivo bioaccumulation with ex vivo isotherms. Data highlight the role of DOPA‐rich mfp proteins in binding both actinyl cations and partial Np(V) reduction. Such data link molecular interactions to radionuclide uptake in the framework of marine radioecology.
