Understanding the Evolution of Mammalian Brain Structures; the Need for a (New) Cerebrotype Approach

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2012
The mammalian brain varies in size by a factor of 100,000 and is composed of anatomically and functionally distinct structures. Theoretically, the manner in which brain composition can evolve is limited, ranging from highly modular (“mosaic evolution ...

Mosaic vaccination: How distributing different vaccines across a population could improve epidemic control

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
Although vaccination has been remarkably effective against some pathogens, for others, rapid antigenic evolution results in vaccination conferring only weak and/or short‐lived protection.

Manipulating Electrocatalysis using Mosaic Catalysts

open access: yesSmall Science, 2021
Understanding the mechanisms and developing strategies toward efficient electrocatalysis at gas–liquid–solid interfaces are important yet challenging. In the past decades, researchers have devoted many efforts to improve catalyst activity by modulating ...

Inter- and Intramolecular recombinations in the Cucumber Mosaic Virus genome related to adaptation to Alstroemeria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In four distinct alstroemeria-infecting cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) isolates, additional sequences of various lengths were present in the 3' nontranslated regions of their RNAs 2 and 3, apparently the result of intra- and intermolecular recombination ...

Greater addition of neurons to the olfactory bulb than to the cerebral cortex of eulipotyphlans but not rodents, afrotherians or primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2014
The olfactory bulb is an evolutionarily old structure that antedates the appearance of a six-layered mammalian cerebral cortex. As such, the neuronal scaling rules that apply to scaling the mass of the olfactory bulb as a function of its number of ...

A Four-Monoclonal Antibody Combination Potently Neutralizes Multiple Botulinum Neurotoxin Serotypes C and D

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Human botulism can be caused by botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) serotypes A to G. Here, we present an antibody-based antitoxin composed of four human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against BoNT/C, BoNT/D, and their mosaic toxins. This work built on our success

Mosaic evolution, preadaptation, and the evolution of evolvability in apes [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 2019
Abstract A major goal in post-synthesis evolutionary biology has been to better understand how complex interactions between traits drive movement along and facilitate the formation of distinct evolutionary pathways.

Iconographic and iconological evaluation of the tryphe and bios mosaic

open access: yes, 2023
Mosaic pavements used in the decoration of public and private buildings with great interest, especially in the Roman Period, are very rich in terms of repertoire. Most of these mosaics consist of mythological designs.

Elastomeric Core-Conductive Shell Slurry Additive Stabilizes High-Voltage NCM811 Cathodes via Mechanical-Electrical Dual Regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
A core‐shell ASA slurry additive constructs a mosaic‐like interface on high‐voltage NCM811 cathodes. This architecture decouples interfacial functions: the elastomeric core buffers mechanical stress to prevent microcracking, while the conductive shell facilitates rapid ion/electron transport, enabling mechanical‐electrical dual regulation and enhanced ...

Coordinated scaling of cortical and cerebellar numbers of neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
While larger brains possess concertedly larger cerebral cortices and cerebella, the relative size of the cerebral cortex increases with brain size, but relative cerebellar size does not.
