Bioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 558-564, July 2026.ABSTRACT Classical bioethics examines moral issues in terrestrial medicine and the life sciences. According to Konrad Szocik, space bioethics merely relocates those questions to harsher environments. We argue that this view is incomplete: space bioethics is a genuinely original domain.

Journal of Human EvolutionFollowing the discovery of hominin fossils at Trinil (Java, Indonesia) in 1891 and 1892, Eugène Dubois named a new species, now known as Homo erectus. Although the main historical events are well-known, there appears to be no consensus regarding two important aspects of the naming of the species, including what constitutes the original publication of ...

Prehistoric shuttle dispersals in a Malthusian economy
International Journal of Economic Theory, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 147-160, June 2026.Abstract Early humans undertook multiple waves of migration out of Africa and back to the continent. We explore prehistoric human migration in a two‐region Malthusian growth model. Whether migration occurs depends on the migration cost, relative population size, relative land supply, and relative hunting‐gathering productivity between regions.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1559, Issue 1, May 2026.Facial expressions depend on their underlying muscular architecture. Comparative macro and microanatomical analyses and fiber‐level quantification across 10 primate species show that the depressor anguli oris (DAO), the anatomical basis of AU15 (downward pulling of the mouth corner), is uniquely human and lacks a discrete homolog in nonhuman primates ...
