The Case of the Missing Green Iguana Predators: Reviews of Ecological Literature Should Go Beyond Google Scholar

open access: yesThe Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

Evaluating Isochoric Freezing as a Strategy for Storage of Red Blood Cells

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Red blood cells (RBCs) are needed for life‐saving blood transfusions, but they undergo continuous degradation during storage. Preserving RBCs for clinical transfusion remains a challenge due to storage‐induced damage and limitations of traditional freezing methods.

Nano‐networks via reaction‐induced self‐assembly coordinate spatiotemporal multi‐drug delivery for acute kidney injury therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...

Why we age

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three categories of explanations exist for why we age: mechanistic theories, which omit reference to evolutionary forces; weakening force of selection theories, which posit that barriers exist that prevent evolutionary forces from optimising fitness in ageing; and optimisation theories, which posit that evolutionary forces actually select for ...

Reading hominin life history in fossil bones and teeth: methods to test hypotheses regarding its evolution

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human life history is derived compared to that of our closest living relatives, the great apes. It has been suggested that these derived traits are causally related to aspects of our ecology, social behaviour and cognitive abilities. However, resolving this requires that we know the evolutionary trajectory of our distinctive pattern of growth,

European Ports as Energy Hubs: A Sustainability Index to Assess Territorial Development

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The capacity of ports to act as energy hubs is increasingly relevant in light of sustainability challenges and global crises like the Ukraine conflict, the COVID‐19 pandemic and energy scarcity. Numerous international and national initiatives are shaping the future of port development to address environmental and economic concerns.
