Locally adaptable mathematical morphology
IEEE International Conference on Image Processing 2005, 2005 We investigate how common binary mathematical morphology operators can be adapted so that the size of the structuring element (SE) can vary across the image. We show that when the SE are balls of a metric, locally adaptable erosion and dilation can be efficiently implemented as a variant of distance transformation algorithms.

Adaptation to Leaf Traits of Individual Trees in a Forest Appears Rare in Caterpillars
Ecology and EvolutionHigh herbivore abundances on trees surrounded by distantly related neighbors (phylogenetic isolation) might in part be due to local adaptation of herbivores to host trees, but this has not been tested.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Evolutionary mismatch along salinity gradients in a Neotropical water strider
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The evolution of local adaptation is crucial for the in situ persistence of populations in changing environments. However, selection along broad environmental gradients could render local adaptation difficult, and might even result in maladaptation.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Future directions and priorities for Arctic bryophyte research
Arctic Science, 2017 The development of evidence-based international strategies for the conservation and management of Arctic ecosystems in the face of climate change is hindered by critical knowledge gaps in Arctic floristic diversity and evolution.
