A sensory ecology approach to understanding snakebites: Influence of sensory cues on the strike of the lancehead pitviper

Journal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 3, Page 237-246, July 2026.
Snakes are notable for having a broad range of predators and one of the most diverse repertoires of defensive behaviors. During heightened responses to aversive stimuli, one of the behaviors displayed is the venomous bite, particularly relevant because it triggers snakebite incidents in humans.

Improving the clinical trial landscape for patients with atypical variants of Alzheimer's disease: a call to action

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Patients with atypical variants of Alzheimer's disease (AD) often present at a younger age with predominantly non‐amnestic impairments and a more aggressive disease course. Historically, individuals with atypical presentations have not been included in large‐scale clinical trials, which typically focus on late‐onset, sporadic amnestic ...

Fluctuating asymmetry in spider‐hunting wasps as a possible indicator of stress in Brazilian Atlantic Forest landscapes Assimetria flutuante em vespas caçadoras de aranhas como possível indicador de estresse em paisagens da Mata Atlântica brasileira

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 558-569, June 2026.
Agricultural cover was positively associated with fluctuating asymmetry in Trypoxylon opacum, suggesting a possible increase in developmental instability in intensively managed landscapes. Wing size was positively related to forest cover and negatively related to agricultural cover, indicating that forested landscapes may promote larger body size ...

Poverty Attributions and Voting Choices in the 2023 Swiss National Elections

Swiss Political Science Review, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 299-331, June 2026.
Abstract Is poverty a relevant issue for Swiss electoral politics and political behavior? In this paper we answer that question by showing that citizens’ agreement with different causal attributions of poverty matters for their voting decisions. Of highest relevance is the difference between an “individual blame” explanation (i.e., the poor are lazy ...
