Improving Darwin Core for research and management of alien species

Biodiversity Information Science and Standards, 2019
To improve the suitability of the Darwin Core standard for the research and management of alien species, the standard needs to express the native status of organisms, how well established they are and how they came to occupy a location.

Darwin wasps: a new name heralds renewed efforts to unravel the evolutionary history of Ichneumonidae

Entomological Communications, 2019
The parasitoid wasp family Ichneumonidae is arguably one of the groups for which current knowledge lags most strongly behind their enormous diversity.

Evolution of microbes and viruses: A paradigm shift in evolutionary biology?

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2012
When Charles Darwin formulated the central principles of evolutionary biology in the Origin of Species in 1859 and the architects of the Modern Synthesis integrated these principles with population genetics almost a century later, the principal if not ...

A Tri‐Culture Heart‐on‐a‐Chip Platform With iPSC‐Derived Cardiac Cells for Predictive Cardiotoxicity Testing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents the first entirely isogenic heart‐on‐chip, unifying cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells from a single iPSC source. The platform reveals a critical biological insight: the endothelium actively shields cardiac tissue from drug‐induced toxicity, challenging the predictive accuracy of conventional, avascular models for ...

Creación independiente y selección natural en Darwin: análisis retórico de una contribución temprana a la tercera cultura

Pensamiento. Revista de Investigación e Información Filosófica
Este artículo analiza las estrategias retóricas empleadas por Darwin en On the Origin of Species, con el objetivo de mostrar cómo su crítica a la creación independiente y su defensa de la selección natural configuran un discurso que trasciende el ámbito ...

Possessing Natural Worlds: Life and Death in Biocultural Collections

Locus, 2022
The second voyage of the HMS Beagle (1831-1836) offers an illuminating case study for contextualising the British Empire’s efforts to secure access and sanction control over natural and cultural resources located in distant regions of the globe. Attempts

Giant Berry‐phase‐Driven X‐Ray Beam Translations in Strain‐Engineered Semiconductor Crystals

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the Berry‐phase effect, X‐rays propagating in deformed crystals undergo large translations, interesting for X‐ray optics applications. Here, the lattice expansion observed upon H irradiation of dilute‐nitride semiconductors is exploited to engineer the deformation landscape of selectively hydrogenated GaAsN epilayers.

Hydrogel Confinement Strategies for 3D Cell Culture in Microfluidic Systems

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hydrogel confinement structures are key to organizing 3D cell cultures in microfluidic devices. This review classifies five structural strategies (micropillar, phaseguide, porous membrane, stepped‐height, and support‐free) and examines their trade‐offs alongside fabrication methods.

Evolución y causas segundas. Una propuesta de superación del cientificismo y del creacionismo

Studium: Filosofía y Teología
Este trabajo se propone responder a una cuestión compleja y de gran relevancia en el ámbito de la filosofía y la religión: ¿es posible establecer un diálogo fructífero entre la doctrina de santo Tomás de Aquino y la teoría de la evolución?

Predicting Postresection Colorectal Liver Metastases Recurrence Using Advanced Graph Neural Networks with Explainability and Causal Inference

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a framework that combines graph neural networks with causal inference to forecast recurrence and uncover the clinical and pathological factors driving it. It further provides interpretability, validates risk factors via counterfactual and interventional analyses, and offers evidence‐based insights for treatment planning ...
