Paleolithic occupation of arid Central Asia in the Middle Pleistocene.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Central Asia is positioned at a crossroads linking several zones important to hominin dispersal during the Middle Pleistocene. However, the scarcity of stratified and dated archaeological material and paleoclimate records makes it difficult to understand

The Middle Paleolithic of the Levant

Archaeology, Ethnology & Anthropology of Eurasia, 2016
This study explores the origin and development of the Middle Paleolithic in the Levant—a region critical for understanding the dispersal of anatomically modern humans. The technological and typological features of the regional Middle Paleolithic industry indicate its distinctiveness, opposing it to other contemporaneous industries of Africa and Eurasia.

The history of anatomical engagement

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The public's fascination with anatomy has evolved over time and progressed from avoidance of the tainted yet saintly corpse, to their fascination with cabinets of curiosities. The current narrative review explores public engagement (PE), from its potential origins as cave paintings, to the rise of the disciplinarity of anatomy.

Taurid Complex Smoking Gun: Detection of Cometary Activity [PDF]

, 2020
Using the Secular Light Curve (SLC) formalism (Ferr\'in, 2010), we have catalogued 88 probable members of the Taurid Complex (TC). 51 of them have useful SLCs and 34 of these (67%) exhibit cometary activity. This high percentage of active asteroids gives support to the hypothesis of a catastrophe that took place during the Upper Paleolithic (Clube and ...

Solvent Effect on Antimicrobial Hydrophilic Xerogel Coating of Medicinal Leathers in Simulated Industrial Finishing Process

ChemPlusChem, EarlyView.
Silica‐hyperbranched poly(ethylene imine) (PEI) xerogels incorporating silver nanoparticles coated titanium dioxide particles. Dual solvent dispersions of these composites enhance medical leathers′ hydrophilicity and antimicrobial properties. The nucleation of the metal ions into the dendritic polymer‘s cavities and the gel formation were inspired by ...
