Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Ecologists and evolutionary biologists are increasingly turning to 3D models to use in scientific research. Natural history museums are one of the primary sources for specimens used as 3D models, and efforts are underway to digitize their collections using methods like photogrammetry.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Electrical Stimulation of Denervated Muscle: A Narrative Review
Artificial Organs, EarlyView.This review explores existing strategies for stimulating denervated muscle following lower motor neuron injury, including direct electrical stimulation of the muscle and artificial reinnervation to enable more comfortable and efficient indirect functional muscle stimulation.

The oscillatory response of the electroretinogram and neuronal adaptation
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract After more than 50 years, there still remains a challenge and an interest to know more as well as extend and deepen our understanding of the small rapid wavelets, the oscillatory potentials (OPs), of the electroretinogram (ERG) and the neuronal adaptation of the retina.
