Ultra‐High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging and Quantification of Microvascular Flow in Xenograft Renal Cell Carcinoma in an Avian Chorioallantoic Membrane Model

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models initiated in avian chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) are under investigation to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic options with the objective of personalizing treatments. CAM PDXs paired with ultra‐high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS) imaging could potentially constitute prospective high throughput assays ...

Own the turf or lose it: Ultrasound‐guided procedures and the future of shoulder repair

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract To highlight why the current arthroscopy‐centred paradigm may be insufficient for rotator cuff disease and to propose a surgeon‐led transition towards office‐based, ultrasound‐guided ‘micro’ interventions. The central question is whether earlier, less invasive image‐guided procedures can preserve tissue biology and improve value while ...

Forecasting the impact of food‐provisioning and other stressors on a marine top‐predator population

Oikos, EarlyView.
Wildlife tourism can alter animal behavior, affect vital rates and diminish population viability but its impact in the context of other human‐ and environmental disturbances, remain largely unstudied. Using simulation models and leveraging a robust long‐term dataset spanning eight years, we evaluated the contribution of wildlife feeding, in the context

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

Ethnobotanical and genetic assessments of Central American avocado landraces reveal novel sources of biodiversity and ancient migration patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...
