Nest Survival of American Coots Relative to Grazing, Burning, and Water Depths
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2011 Water and emergent vegetation are key features influencing nest site selection and success for many marsh-nesting waterbirds. Wetland management practices such as grazing, burning, and water-level manipulations directly affect these features and can ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Phase separation of SF3B1 acts as a key regulatory mechanism for dynamic alternative splicing throughout early mouse embryogenesis. Its absence triggers extensive splicing errors, which induce persistent DNA damage, defective cell cycle progression, and failed cell lineage commitment, and ultimately hinder the normal growth and development of ...

PLoS ONE, 2015 Several studies have suggested that significant embryo mortality is caused by microbes, while high microbial loads are generated by the decomposition of eggs broken by later nesting turtles.

Closing the Loop: High‐Precision 3D Photofabrication in Living Tissues
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Writing 3D microstructures inside living tissue demands more than laser access; It demands information. Hierarchical sensing captures thermal and mechanical states across pulse‐train, voxel, and structure timescales, feeding a controller that steers the laser in real time.

Habitat urbanization, nest defense and breeding success in the Oriental Magpie (Pica serica)
Frontiers in Ecology and EvolutionNest defense is one component of parental behavior performed to prevent the approaches of potential predators toward eggs and offspring. Although positive relationship between the occurrence and/or intensity of nest defense and the breeding success is ...

Climate as an Evolutionary Driver of Nest Morphology in Birds: A Review
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Avian nests are critical for successful reproduction in birds. Nest microclimate can affect egg development, chick growth and fledgling success, suggesting that nest building behavior should be under strong selective pressure to nesting conditions. Given

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Beta‐amyloid peptide (Aβ)‐induced suppression of hippocampal GABAergic interneuron activity drives hyperexcitability, amyloid pathology, and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting that enhancing hippocampal inhibition may be protective.

A Facial Foundation Model for Clinical Biomarker Prediction and Real‐World Mobile Deployment
Advanced Science, EarlyView.MedicalFaceFound is a facial foundation model developed through three‐stage progressive pre‐training, adapting representations from general vision to facial structure and clinical phenotypes. Using a single facial image, it estimates 62 biomarkers across multiple physiological systems and supports downstream risk prediction for cardiovascular ...

Fence and plough for Lapwings: Nest protection to improve nest and chick survival in Swiss farmland [PDF]
, 2013 Switzerland had up to 1000 Lapwing pairs breeding in the 1970s. Actually, there are some 200. The crash was mainly due to a poor productivity of 0.2 to 0.4 fledglings per pair and year.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The IgLec gene family generates both protein‐coding antiviral effectors and non‐coding transcripts. Upon viral infection, non‐coding transcripts are preferentially targeted by viral miR‐N48, thereby buffering protein‐coding isoforms from repression. Depletion of these decoy transcripts compromises antiviral defense, revealing a non‐coding RNA‐mediated ...
