The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Measurement error (ME) in geometric morphometrics has been the subject of countless articles, but none specific to the effect of time lags on landmark digitization error. Yet, especially for visiting scientists working on museum collections, it is not uncommon to collect data in multiple rounds, with interruptions of weeks or years. To explore

Singular Arcs on Average Optimal Control-Affine Problems [PDF]
arXivIn this paper we address optimal control problems in which the system parameters follow a probability distribution, and the optimization is based on average performance. These problems, known as Riemann-Stieltjes optimal control or optimal ensemble control problems, involve uncertainties that influence system dynamics.

The history of anatomical engagement
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract The public's fascination with anatomy has evolved over time and progressed from avoidance of the tainted yet saintly corpse, to their fascination with cabinets of curiosities. The current narrative review explores public engagement (PE), from its potential origins as cave paintings, to the rise of the disciplinarity of anatomy.

Industrial Dynamics and Business Strategies in the Emergence of Agricultural Biological Inputs
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological products present a sustainable alternative to synthetic agricultural inputs, yet the industrial dynamics triggered by these solutions remain unexplored. This study examines the strategic responses of dominant agricultural input firms to the rise of biological solutions. Through qualitative textual analysis of press releases, company

Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Pareto principle is based on the concept that roughly 80% of outcomes are generated by 20% of inputs, efforts, or contributors within a group. Using a national sample of U.S. prison inmates, we examined various percentile rankings of self‐reported institutional misconduct to determine how much disorder is created behind bars by the most ...

An eco-epidemiological model with prey-taxis and slow diffusion: Global existence, boundedness and novel dynamics [PDF]
arXivIn this manuscript, an attempt has been made to understand the effects of prey-taxis on the existence of global-in-time solutions and dynamics in an eco-epidemiological model, particularly under the influence of slow dispersal characterized by the $p$-Laplacian operator and enhanced mortality of the infected prey, subject to specific assumptions on the

Non‐thermal plasma decontamination of microbes: a state of the art
Biotechnology Progress, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract Microbial decontamination is a critical concern in various sectors, from healthcare to food processing. Traditional decontamination methods, while effective to a degree, present limitations in terms of environmental impact, efficiency, and potential harm to the target material. This review investigates the emerging realm of non‐thermal plasma (

Improving trans‐cinnamic acid production in a model cyanobacterium
Biotechnology Progress, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract trans‐Cinnamic acid (tCA) is a precursor in the synthesis of many high‐value compounds with bio‐active qualities useful in applications like medicine, polymers, and cosmetics. Currently tCA is produced by industrial chemical synthesis from fossil fuels or cost‐prohibitive isolation from terrestrial plants.

Classical Biological Control of Environmental Pests
The Florida Entomologist, 1994 Exotic species commonly invade areas of conservation concern. Such species may threaten native species or ecosystems, either attacking individual species, or changing ecosystem characteristics in ways that make them less suitable for the continued existence of one or more native species.
