Relevance of state–behaviour feedbacks for animal welfare

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An animal's behaviour and its state, including its health and affective state, are dynamic and tightly coupled, influencing each other over time. Although both are relevant to the animal's welfare, there has been limited research on their dynamics in welfare studies. Here we aim to: (i) review evidence for feedbacks between state and behaviour

Ethiopian girls narratives of risk and governance of circular migration to the Arabian Gulf

Children &Society, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 603-619, May 2025.
Abstract This article explores Ethiopian girls' narratives of risks and vulnerability during their migratory journeys to, in and from Saudi Arabia. It discusses how risks of deprivation and abuse that drive girls to leave their homes are sustained during the migration process. The research primarily draws on interviews with 35 deported girls from Saudi

Advances in the Study of Pluripotent Stem Cells in Livestock

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Livestock pluripotent stem cells include embryonic stem cells (ESCs) isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from somatic cell reprogramming. They hold significant potential for applications in livestock breed improvement, rapid propagation, human disease modelling and human organ ...
