Validation of aerial photogrammetry methods to measure body size, condition and mass in small cetaceans

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 5, Page 1788-1808, 1 March 2026.
Abstract figure legend Unoccupied aerial vehicle (UAV)‐based photogrammetry provides measurements equivalent to traditional hand measurements in bottlenose dolphins. Mass estimates derived from UAV measurements closely match the true body mass of live individuals.

Parallel Morphological and Functional Development in the Xenopus Retinotectal System

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The retinotectal projection in Xenopus laevis is topographically organized. During the early development of the Xenopus visual system, the optic tectum increases considerably in volume, and retinotectal axons and dendrites undergo extensive activity‐dependent remodeling.
