Becoming You While Being Me: Exploring the Limits of Christian Love and Identity
Warszawskie Studia Teologiczne, 2023 Does love - can love - transform one person into the other without loss of personal identity? Taking a cue from a phrase in Aquinas’s Commentary on the Sentences, we seek in the writings of St John of the Cross an understanding of how love works in ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Methods for Assessment and Monitoring of Light Pollution around Ecologically Sensitive Sites
Journal of Imaging, 2019 Since the introduction of electric lighting over a century ago, and particularly in the decades following the Second World War, indications of artificial light on the nighttime Earth as seen from Earth orbit have increased at a rate exceeding that of ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

La nocturnité au quotidien chez les Indiens tseltal du Chiapas (Mexique)
Ateliers d'Anthropologie, 2020 This analysis invites us to scrutinise the Tseltal night from the perspective of its role as an agent of behaviours, thoughts, attitudes, and corporeal habits among these natives of the Mexican Highlands.As the home of sleep, night enables the dreamer to

Temporalités, 2023 This article shows how living beings take part in shaping nocturnal temporalities in the case of honeybees and beekeeping and agricultural work. At night, because of the absence of light, bees stop flying and gather inside their hive.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

« Et que fais-tu de cinq cents millions d’étoiles ? »
Ateliers d'Anthropologie, 2020 If “that which is rare is precious”, then that which becomes scarce gains value. More precisely—and because nothing is created ex nihilo—the value of that thing, previously little-known or neglected, ends up being revealed by the threat of its erosion ...
