“Buprenorphine doesn't hold me”: Neurochemical afterlives of state violence and the struggle for meaning in addiction treatment

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper analyzes two disparate experiences of buprenorphine, a medication for opioid addiction, in California. Within the context of the U.S. War on Drugs and after decades of criminalization, buprenorphine represents a shift toward outpatient medical treatment of opioid addiction, but it has been unequally distributed and experienced ...

Antibiotic susceptibilities of bacteria isolated within the oral flora of Florida blacktip sharks: guidance for empiric antibiotic therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Sharks possess a variety of pathogenic bacteria in their oral cavity that may potentially be transferred into humans during a bite. The aim of the presented study focused on the identification of the bacteria present in the mouths of live blacktip sharks,

Risk, Recklessness, and Objectivism

open access: yesRatio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One classic objection to Objectivism about ought is that it recommends unconscionably risky actions in so‐called Three‐Option‐Cases, the most famous of which is Jackson's case featuring a doctor called Jill. Some philosophers deny this orthodoxy and claim that Objectivism can yet account for our intuitions in such cases.

Antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria isolated from the oral cavities of live white sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) in South African waters

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2019
The white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) is responsible for 49% of shark-related injuries in South Africa, yet no information currently exists on the composition or antibiotic resistance of bacteria hosted by these apex predators in South African waters.

Powers and Practices in Labor Standards Enforcement

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wage theft remains a pervasive problem internationally and within the United States. In response, worker advocates have sought stronger laws to deter violations and promote compliance. Yet formal authority alone may be insufficient; labor departments often fail to use the full extent of their legal authority to conduct vigorous enforcement ...

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1797-1820, July 2026.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

Drivers of change in human–wildlife relationships: Southern Africa as an example

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2233-2250, July 2026.
Abstract Human–wildlife relationships (HWRs) are changing globally in response to shifts in ecological dynamics and societal values, often resulting in contestation. With an increasing need to enable human–wildlife coexistence, it is essential to better understand the drivers of change in HWRs.

First documentation of putative mating behavior in blue sharks (Prionace glauca) reveals a potential reproductive area in the Northeast Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yesWeb Ecology
Reproductive behavior in sharks remains poorly understood, with direct observations of mating reported in only a few species. The blue shark (Prionace glauca) is a widely distributed, placental viviparous species, yet direct evidence of mating behavior ...

Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Machine Learning Detection of Scarring Events in Killer Whales

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Detection and analysis of body scars using photo‐identification data of cetaceans can provide insights into life history, behavior, and exposure to threats, but such analyses typically require manual examination of large image datasets. To explore whether machine learning can assist this process, we developed a pipeline for automatically ...
