The global threat from plastic pollution
Science, 2021Plastic pollution accumulating in an area of the environment is considered “poorly reversible” if natural mineralization processes occurring there are slow and engineered remediation solutions are improbable. Should negative outcomes in these areas arise

River plastic emissions to the world’s oceans
Nature Communications, 2017 Plastics in the marine environment have become a major concern because of their persistence at sea, and adverse consequences to marine life and potentially human health.

Plastic pollution in the Arctic
Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, 2022 Plastic pollution is now pervasive in the Arctic, even in areas with no apparent human activity, such as the deep seafloor. In this Review, we describe the sources and impacts of Arctic plastic pollution, including plastic debris and microplastics, which

A variety of noninvasive brain stimulation techniques have been used to study neuronal plasticity. Mostly, noninvasive techniques have been employed, and the bulk of studies have focused on the motor system, because its physiology is more readily accessible and physiological properties can be studied with greater detail than in other systems.

Nature, 1997
The connections between neurons (synapses) can adapt to changing circumstances of nervous transmissions, a phenomenon known as activity-dependent plasticity. Moreover, such plasticity is itself regulated, but little is known about the mechanisms or behavioural consequences of this metaplasticity.

Plastics, Plasticity, and the Plastic
Interdisciplinary Literary StudiesABSTRACT This article examines the development of the idea of “plasticity” by proposing two critical moments in its conceptual epigenesis: that of plastics, represented by Cudworth and Shaftesbury in the seventeenth century, and that of plasticity as elaborated by Catherine Malabou in the twenty-first century.

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2002
Despite some recent setbacks, it remains clear that adult stem cells under appropriate experimental conditions can at some frequency exhibit a wider range of differentiation potentials than previously appreciated. This is underscored by the recent demonstration of the extensive differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells. In terms of mechanism,
