Early life of Neanderthals [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance The extent to which Neanderthals differ from us is the focus of many studies in human evolution. There is debate about their pace of growth and early-life metabolic constraints, both of which are still poorly understood. Here we use chemical and isotopic patterns in tandem with enamel growth rates of three Neanderthal milk teeth ...

Silver-spoon upbringing improves early-life fitness but promotes reproductive ageing in a wild bird [PDF]
, 2020 Early-life conditions can have long-lasting effects and organisms that experience a poor start in life are often expected to age at a faster rate.

Science Progress, 2018 Nutritionally, the first 1,000 days of an infant's life – from conception to two years – has been identified as a highly influential period, during which lasting health can be achieved. Significant evidence links patterns of infant feeding to both short and long-term health outcomes, many of which can be prevented through nutritional modifications ...

When lingulid brachiopods became infaunal(?) – perspectives from the morphological and anatomical information [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 Morphology usually serves as an effective proxy for functional ecology, and the evaluation of morphological, anatomical, and ecological changes allows for a deeper understanding of the nature of diversification and macroevolution.
