How can children and young people have a voice in urban treescapes?

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientific understanding of climate change has, to date, failed to result in sufficient action. This paper proposes that a deficit model of top‐down learning and dissemination in relation to public engagement with science may be part of the problem, particularly when considering the attitudes, values and empowerment of children and young ...

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Examining the multi‐disciplinary origins of biophobia towards threatening and non‐threatening wildlife in a highly urbanised city in China

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urbanisation is reshaping how people experience wildlife, reducing our shared spaces with local biodiversity. Fewer opportunities for human–wildlife interactions weaken our emotional attachments to nature and precipitate a loss of species knowledge and familiarity.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Tensions in Fostering Student Epistemic Agency Through Sensemaking in Elementary Science

open access: yesJournal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent reforms in science education emphasize engaging students in authentic sensemaking practices. Central to this vision is positioning students as epistemic agents who generate questions, negotiate ideas, and co‐construct scientific understanding. Yet, classroom realities reveal persistent tensions in implementing these ideals, particularly

A verified spider bite and a review of the literature confirm Indian ornamental tree spiders (Poecilotheria species) as underestimated theraphosids of medical importance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Literature on bird spider or tarantula bites (Theraphosidae) is rare. This is astonishing as they are coveted pets and interaction with their keepers (feeding, cleaning the terrarium or taking them out to hold) might increase the possibility for bites ...

A secured cloud‐medical data sharing with A‐BRSA and Salp ‐Ant Lion Optimisation Algorithm

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sharing medical data among healthcare providers, researchers, and patients is crucial for efficient healthcare services. Cloud‐assisted smart healthcare (s‐healthcare) systems have made it easier to store EHRs effectively. However, the traditional encryption algorithms used to secure this data can be vulnerable to attacks if the encryption key

Semi‐automated MicroED system unveils multiple polymorphs in fish‐derived guanine crystals

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section C, EarlyView.
A semi‐automated MicroED data collection and processing system was established and shown to be suitable for the structural investigation of submicrometer‐scale biogenic crystals.Certain fish display silvery or blue colour, not through pigments, but through specialized guanine crystals that exist within iridophore cells in their skin. Within these cells,
