Spatial Dynamics and Lifespan of Adult Cicadas After Fire and Logging: A Radiotracking Study

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effects of wildfire and post‐fire salvage logging on the survival, spatial behavior, and habitat selection of Lyristes plebejus cicadas in Mediterranean pine forests. A total of 63 cicadas were captured, tagged with radio transmitters, and released in three disturbance contexts: burnt‐logged, burnt‐unlogged, and unburnt ...

WIMANET: The Power of a Network in Wildlife Malaria Research

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The Wildlife Malaria Network (WIMANET) is an EU‐COST funded global network of researchers and stakeholders interested in wildlife malaria and related haemosporidian parasites. In this paper, we review WIMANET's activities to date. We hope this encourages new members to join the network and motivates both new and existing members to participate in its ...

Age‐Associated Decline in Autophagy Pathways in the Retinal Pigment Epithelium and Protective Effects of Topical Trehalose in Light‐Induced Outer Retinal Degeneration in Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
Transcriptomic analyses reveal an age‐related decline in autophagy pathways in RPE/choroid. These pathways remain unchanged in early AMD but become bidirectionally dysregulated in later stages, along with increased RPE loss. Pre‐treatment with trehalose eyedrops enhances RPE autophagy flux and prevents light‐induced outer retinal degeneration in mice ...

Persistence of Ancestral KhoeSan Mitochondrial Patterns in Contemporary South African Populations

open access: yesAnnals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Southern Africa has been inhabited by hunter‐gatherers for at least 20,000 years and has received diverse immigration flows in the last 2000 years. The original inhabitants have interacted with the pastoralist migrants from Eastern Africa (∼2000 ybp), followed by the southern Bantu migration arriving some 1000 ybp, and more ...

“Professional politicians” have been lamented for their perceived negative impact on representative democracy. However, the concept of “political professionalisation” is deployed inconsistently, making these claims difficult to assess. This article develops a framework to measure professionalisation across two dimensions: career professionalisation ...

Relevance of ecological momentary assessment for medication adherence in clinical settings: A precision psychiatry approach

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medication non‐adherence is a leading cause of treatment failure in psychiatric populations. However, current studies highlight the lack of methodological guidance on medication assessments. Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), using smartphone‐based evaluations, shows promise for real‐time monitoring in everyday settings.

Computers and chess masters: The role of AI in transforming elite human performance

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have made significant strides in recent years, often supplementing rather than replacing human performance. The extent of their assistance at the highest levels of human performance remains unclear. We analyse over 11.6 million decisions of elite chess players, a domain commonly used as a testbed for AI
