ABSTRACT This work aims to provide theoretical and practical insights into coping with expatriation challenges. We show that both acceptance and action (problem‐solving) are needed, to manage different aspects of expatriate life. These two coping strategies are complementary and, to be beneficial, need to be applied selectively.

Reoperation is often used as an outcome measure after ventral hernia repair but may underestimate the true recurrence rate, potentially leading to biased interpretation of studies using reoperation for recurrence as an outcome. This study aimed to determine the proportion of patients with recurrence after ventral hernia repair who undergo reoperation ...

Understanding natal emigration in group‐living carnivores
Dispersal is a key ecological and evolutionary process, yet drivers of variation in emigration under human‐modified conditions remain understudied. Using a novel genetic approach applied to harvested grey wolves in Idaho, USA, we found that prey availability and population density shape natal emigration patterns in a cooperative breeder.
