Why language really is not a communication system
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 While most evolutionary scenarios for language see it as a communication system with consequences on the language-ready brain, there are major difficulties for such a view. First, language has a core combination of features—semanticity, discrete infinity,

The shape of the language-ready brain
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 Our core hypothesis is that the emergence of our species-specific language-ready brain ought to be understood in light of the developmental changes expressed at the levels of brain morphology and neural connectivity that occurred in our species after the

Thermal response of main protease of SARS and COVID-19 via a coarse-grained approach
AIP Advances, 2022 Large-scale Monte Carlo simulations are performed to investigate local and global thermodynamic properties of the main protease in SARS (MP1) and COVID-19 (MP2) coronaviruses using a bond-fluctuating coarse-grained protein model for a range of ...

PLoS ONE, 2015 The postcranial evidence for the Australopithecus genus indicates that australopiths were able bipeds; however, the morphology of the forelimbs and particularly that of the shoulder girdle suggests that they were partially adapted to an arboreal ...

Mucoadhesive Polymer Hyaluronan as Biodegradable Cationic/Zwitterionic-Drug Delivery Vehicle
ADMET and DMPK, 2015 Mucoadhesive polymers in pharmaceutical formulations release drugs in mucosal areas. They interact and fix to mucus via molecular interpenetration, etc., which increase drug bioavailability.

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal ChemistryNew thymol–3,4-disubstitutedthiazole hybrids were synthesised as dual COX-2/5-LOX inhibitors. Compounds 6b, 6d, 6e, and 6f displayed in vitro inhibitory activity against COX-2 (IC50= 0.037, 0.042, 0.046, and 0.039 µM) nearly equal to celecoxib (IC50= 0 ...

Bulletins et Mémoires de la Société d’Anthropologie de Paris, 2007 It is critical to be able to recognize the juvenile specimens within the fossil record in order to determine the adult variability of the different taxa and to approach their ontogenetic and phylogenetic characteristics.

Zoological Letters, 2019 A major question in stream ecology is how invertebrates cope with flow. In aquatic gastropods, typically, larger and more globular shells with larger apertures are found in lotic (flowing water) versus lentic (stagnant water) habitats.
