National Relics: Secular Sacrality, Museums, and Heritage‐Making in Nineteenth‐Century Chile

Museum Anthropology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Fall 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines how objects and bodily remains are transformed and ritualized into national relics through collecting and exhibiting practices in museums. Focusing on nineteenth‐century Chile, it draws on archival sources, material culture theory, and the anthropology of religion to argue that objects associated with Chile's nation‐state

Learning for the Long Run: Children Increasingly Prioritize Generalizable Knowledge in Tool Selection

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Children are ecological learners; they adapt their information search strategies to fit the structure of their immediate learning environment. In two studies, we explore whether this search behavior is impacted by the potential for later information gain.

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Impact of the leptin receptor gene on pig performance and quality traits

Scientific Reports
The recessive T allele of the missense polymorphism rs709596309 C > T of the leptin receptor gene is associated with intramuscular fat. However, its overall impact on pork production is still partial.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Biomaterial Physical Cues as Gene Regulators for Cellular Agriculture

Advanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2026.
This review elucidates how biomaterial physical cues—ranging from matrix stiffness to remote electromagnetic fields—serve as extrinsic regulators of gene expression in cellular agriculture. By identifying central mechanotransduction pathways that bridge physical inputs to genetic remodeling, the authors propose the “Material Genome” concept: a ...
