Midbrain PAG Astrocytes Modulate Mouse Defensive and Panic‐Like Behaviors
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Astrocytes in the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) dynamically encode threat intensity and shape defensive action selection in mice. Real‐time Ca2+ imaging reveals robust astrocytic activation during predator odor and CO2 exposure. Aberrant astrocytic Ca2+ overactivation disrupts goal‐directed escape, biases behavior toward freezing, and induces ...

Forest cover change in space and time : combining the von Thunen and forest transition theories [PDF]
This paper presents a framework for analyzing tropical deforestation and reforestation using the von Thunen model as its starting point: land is allocated to the use which yields the highest rent, and the rents of various land uses are determined by ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A predictive model for 3D printability is developed by integrating rheological analysis, including the Large Amplitude Oscillatory Shear (LAOS) test, with machine learning. With prediction errors under 10%, the model shows that post‐extrusion recovery controls horizontal printability, while high‐strain‐rate nozzle flow dictates vertical printability ...
