The Effects of Human Presence, Restraint, and Stressed Neighbors on Corticosterone Levels in Domesticated Budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
Female budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) did not significantly elevate their plasma corticosterone levels in response to human presence at the beginning of the experiment. However, plasma corticosterone was significantly elevated by restraint stress, the return of a neighbor that received restraint stress, and human presence at the end of the ...

Critical evaluation of three cryo‐EM structures of particulate methane monooxygenase by quantum refinement

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
We have studied the copper sites in three cryogenic electron‐microscopy structures of particulate methane monooxygenase with quantum refinement. We show that the CuA, CuC and CuD sites are correctly modelled and that the CuB site is mononuclear in all structures, whereas we find no support for copper in the suggested trinuclear active site or two sites

Migratory connectivity and barrier‐crossing flights of Vermivora warblers are associated with synoptic weather conditions

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Tracking data from ~10 g songbirds illuminate how weather conditions affect the initiation of long‐distance migratory flights across the Gulf of Mexico during autumn and spring. Seasonal differences and weak migratory connectivity near the Gulf suggest adaptive responses to weather, with future climate trends potentially reducing crossing favorability ...

Scandalisation, gender and space in ancient Rome: The case of Cicero and Clodia

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses the public attack on Clodia Metelli, a Roman aristocratic woman, by the orator Marcus Tullius Cicero in a trial in 56 BCE. Drawing on modern scandal theory, this article analyses how Cicero uses scandal dynamics to turn Clodia, the witness in the case, into the culprit.

Queering Institutional Milestones in Elite Higher Education: Queer Perspectives on Princeton University and Coeducation (1960–1980)

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new archive of oral history interviews from LGBTQIA‐identified alumni, faculty and staff reveals the complex ways that queer and transgender students understood, experienced and remembered the long transition from single‐sex to coeducation at Princeton University.

The Electoral Coalition of the Radical Right in Western Europe

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While most research on the radical right attempts to identify the one central voting motive among its supporters, few studies have sought to differentiate between different types of voters. Given this research gap, we assume that there are multiple paths to the radical right and that different groups have different motives for their support ...
