How Seriously Should We Take AI Welfare? Constraints From the Epistemology of Consciousness

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some philosophers argue that near‐term artificial intelligence (AI) systems might soon be welfare subjects. We should take AI welfare seriously, they urge, because AI systems might soon have properties indicated by our best scientific theories of consciousness, and consciousness suffices for welfare subjectivity.

Recent Diachronic Change in Affiliative Vocatives in British English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates recent diachronic change in affiliative address in spoken British English by comparing data from the demographic components of the BNC1994 and BNC2014. Using a systematically coded dataset of over 6000 vocative tokens, we analyze forms that signal solidarity and social closeness (including dude, bro, girl, dear, love ...

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Determinants of maximal oxygen uptake in highly trained females and males: a mechanistic study of sex differences using advanced invasive methods

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Tonotopically distinct OFF responses arise in the mouse auditory midbrain following sideband suppression

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sounds of different frequencies elicit spatially distinct patterns of neural activity within the inferior colliculus aligned to the tonotopic organization of afferent projections. Sound‐evoked neural responses can be visualized in awake mice that express fluorescent Ca2+ sensors.

A Global Prospective Harmonization Framework for Suicidality, Anhedonia, and Obsessive‐Compulsive Symptoms in Psychiatric Genetic Studies: A Cross‐Continental Study Within the Ancestral Population Network

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 201, Issue 6, Page 379-395, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aims to prospectively collect harmonized, quantitative, and dimensional psychiatric phenotypes (suicidality, anhedonia, and obsessive‐compulsive symptoms) and information on discrimination, stigma, and unfair treatment in up to 27,500 individuals across diverse ancestries and clinical populations for genetic analysis within the NIMH

Unsuspected drug shortage is impacting the German HIV PrEP supply - results of a cross-sectional survey show: majority of PrEP users had to stop or switch to on-demand PrEP and higher unmet PrEP demand among women, diverse individuals, and those in rural or small-town areas

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background To assess the implications of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) shortages, we conducted a survey among PrEP users and individuals interested in PrEP. The survey explored coping strategies, HIV prevention and sexual behavior and stress levels
