Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...

ANTARCTICA AS BACKGROUND FOR MAMMALIAN EVOLUTION
Publicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2015 . Since the 1980's, a series of new Cretaceous-Paleogene land mammals has been found in southern continents. They drastically changed the traditional perspective of how mammals evolved all over the world, and particularly, how they evolved in the ...

Urbanization and Vector Species Shape Avian Malaria Prevalence in Mosquitoes
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Avian malaria prevalence was assessed in two mosquito species across urban and peri‐urban habitats. No infections were detected in either species in urban areas, while a 2.53% prevalence was found in the native Culex pipiens from peri‐urban sites, highlighting the influence of urbanization on parasite transmission dynamics.

The Troubles and Beyond: The impact of a museum exhibit on a post‐conflict society
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract In divided societies, can museums contribute to healing and recovery? While efforts to memorialize past violence typically aim to promote tolerance and reconciliation, remembering could exacerbate divisions in recovering societies where the past is deeply contested. We examine a transitional justice museum exhibit in Northern Ireland.

Fatty Acid Signaling Mechanisms in Neural Cells: Fatty Acid Receptors
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019 Fatty acids (FAs) are typically associated with structural and metabolic roles, as they can be stored as triglycerides, degraded by β-oxidation or used in phospholipids’ synthesis, the main components of biological membranes. It has been shown that these
