Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters
New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Cephalopod Ink: Production, Chemistry, Functions and Applications
Marine Drugs, 2014 One of the most distinctive and defining features of coleoid cephalopods—squid, cuttlefish and octopus—is their inking behavior. Their ink, which is blackened by melanin, but also contains other constituents, has been used by humans in various ways for ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1311-1333, June 2026.ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Hydrogel Adhesives for Gastrointestinal Perforation: Design Principles and Applications
Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.There are few reviews on hydrogel adhesives that comprehensively highlight the design principles, factors affecting adhesion, and applications for gastrointestinal (GI) perforation repair. This review outlines the mainstream design approaches of hydrogel adhesives via covalent and noncovalent molecular interactions, illustrating the underlying adhesive

Excitation–contraction coupling reflects the metabolic profile of mantle muscle in young cuttlefish
The mantle muscle of common cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis, is responsible both for high-magnitude and rapid movements for locomotion, as well as sustained ventilation, which require specific metabolic, electrophysiological, and structural organization ...
