Running towards: Labour market incentives for runaway slaves in the British Cape Colony, 1830–1838
Abstract Recent scholarship on slave escapes has increasingly emphasised economic motivation, but few studies have empirically investigated how market incentives influenced the decision‐making of enslaved individuals during transitions from coerced to wage labour.

UrbanClipAtlas: A Visual Analytics Framework for Event and Scene Retrieval in Urban Videos
Abstract Extracting actionable insights from long‐duration urban videos is often labor‐intensive: analysts must manually sift through raw footage to pinpoint target events or uncover broader behavioral trends. In this work, we present UrbanClipAtlas, a visual analytics system for exploring long urban videos recorded at street intersections ...

TOP1MT rs2293925 is an enhancer‐active regulatory SNP that shapes mitochondrial R‐loop dynamics
This study shows how a common genetic variant of mitochondrial topoisomerase 1 (TOP1MT rs2293925) can influence mitochondrial gene regulation, DNA topology, and formation of noncanonical nucleic acid structures such as R‐loops. By linking this enhancer‐active variant to mitochondrial nucleic acid stress in cellular contexts relevant to amyotrophic ...

An AI‐assisted workflow for generating historical species distributions from avian museum specimens
The Earth's biodiversity is changing rapidly due to human activities. Natural history collections could help us better understand how and why biodiversity is changing but are grossly under‐used in this respect. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform this situation by enabling us to unlock data associated with museum specimens more ...
