Differential expression of conserved germ line markers and delayed segregation of male and female primordial germ cells in a hermaphrodite, the leech helobdella. [PDF]

, 2013
In sexually reproducing animals, primordial germ cells (PGCs) are often set aside early in embryogenesis, a strategy that minimizes the risk of genomic damage associated with replication and mitosis during the cell cycle.

Kant's Metaphysics of Race, Its Distinctiveness, and Its Normativity

Journal of Social Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on the contemporary taxonomy of the metaphysics of race, this paper shows that Kant's theory of race occupies a distinct metaphysical position on race. Second, it argues that Kant's metaphysics of race inherently produces racist claims.

Social epigenetics: a science of social science? [PDF]

, 2016
Epigenetics has considerable potential to transform social science by embedding mutually regulative reciprocal connections between biological and social processes within the human activities it studies. This paper highlights common epigenetic methods and

Associations of Skin Biomechanical Properties With Biological Aging Clocks and Longitudinal Changes in Intrinsic Capacity in Adults Aged 20–93: The INSPIRE‐T Project

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study assessed skin biomechanics using the Cutometer in 441 community‐dwelling adults aged 20–93 from the INSPIRE‐T cohort. We demonstrated that skin elasticity and viscoelasticity parameters were associated with the intrinsic capacity (IC) score, a functional marker of healthy aging encompassing cognition, locomotion, psychology, vitality, and ...

Better living through chemistry: caloric restriction (CR) and CR mimetics alter genome function to promote increased health and lifespan

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
Caloric restriction (CR), defined as decreased nutrient intake without causing malnutrition, has been documented to increase both health and lifespan across numerous organisms, including humans.

Crossovers between epigenesis and epigenetics. A multicenter approach to the history of epigenetics (1901-1975) [PDF]

, 2014
The origin of epigenetics has been traditionally traced back to Conrad Hal Waddington's foundational work in 1940s. The aim of the present paper is to reveal a hidden history of epigenetics, by means of a multicenter approach.
