Year-Round Activity Patterns of Badgers (Meles meles) and Mesocarnivore Communities in Urban and Sub-Urban Areas

open access: yesUrban Science
Urbanisation exerts profound effects on biodiversity, driving species extinctions while promoting behavioural adaptations in generalist taxa. The European badger (Meles meles) exemplifies such adaptability, exploiting anthropogenic resources and ...

SCTR–Expressing Astrocyte–Serotonergic Neuron Signaling Drives Sexual Dimorphism in Depression Through KAT7/H4ac–Foxc2 Epigenetic Axis in an AMPK‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Astrocytic SCTR modulates depressive‐related phenotypes via AMPKα1, whereas lowered Mt1 blunts Megalin‐dependent AMPKα2 signaling in serotonergic neurons. Diminished AMPKα2 hinders KAT7 nuclear translocation, curtails KAT7 occupancy and H4K8ac at the Foxc2 promoter, and represses Foxc2 transcription, revealing cell‐type‐specific AMPK‐linked epigenetic ...

Dual Randomness From Spatial and Temporal Variations in Stochastic Zinc Gallate Nanoclusters for PUF and TRNG Co‐Driven Image Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐randomness hardware platform is demonstrated by integrating PUF and TRNG functionalities into mixed‐ZGO nanoclusters. By leveraging spatial and temporal stochasticity, the mixed‐ZGO NCs device enables both unique identification and random signal generation.

Do Universal Free School Meals Improve the Dietary Quality of Food‐At‐Home Purchases?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since 2014, the number of schools offering universal free meals to all enrolled children without requiring annual meal applications has increased meaningfully. Using USDA's Purchase to Plate Crosswalk, a difference‐in‐differences framework, and a nationwide consumer panel, the effect of universal‐free‐meal exposure on the diet quality of food ...

The Effect of SNAP Purchasing Power on Diet Quality

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits millions of eligible low‐income Americans by increasing access to food, helping to reduce food insecurity. Previous studies have documented that the geographical variation in local food prices leads to significant differences in SNAP's purchasing power.
