Role of funders in embedding tests in conservation practice
Abstract Effective conservation practice requires decisions based on reliable and relevant evidence, but significant gaps in the evidence base exist. Incorporating well‐designed tests of the effectiveness of interventions for biodiversity in conservation projects is one of the best ways to scale up the rate of evidence generation.

A molecular rack and pinion actuates a cell-surface adhesin and enables bacterial gliding motility
This manuscript proposes that gliding bacteria use a molecular rack and pinion machinery for motion. The gliding bacterium Flavobacterium johnsoniae is known to have an adhesin, SprB, that moves along the cell surface on a spiral track. Following viscous

Abstract One of the most contentious issues in the study of the Atlantic slave trade is the profitability of the trade. In this paper, we contribute by pooling all available data on transatlantic slave ship voyage accounts into a joint dataset. This dataset includes data from a period of 100 years (1730–1830) and from five nations (Denmark, France ...

Performing Micro‐Role Transitions in Open Strategy
Abstract Open strategy (OS) requires contributors with a variety of functional backgrounds to episodically perform a strategy role in addition to their functional responsibilities. These actors engage in micro‐role transitions as they temporarily shift from one role to another.

It’s All About Me (Or Is It Us?): The Narrative Antecedents of the Locus of Celebrity
Abstract For two decades, research on individual and organizational celebrity has flourished. However, the literature remains limited in several ways. First, despite recent gains regarding the antecedents of celebrity, current theory does not fully explain why celebrity resides at a specific locus (i.e., at the individual‐ and/or organizational level).
