Time Tools

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Many core human activities require an understanding of time. To coordinate rituals, plan harvests and hunts, recall histories, keep appointments, and follow recipes, we need to grapple with invisible temporal structures like durations, sequences, and cycles. No other species seems to do this.

Multispecies slavery–environment nexus in resource extraction and animals' ecological politics: Coercive donkey labour in Indian river sand mining

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Coercive animal labour is often state sanctioned as an ecologically friendly mode of sand mining, based on anthropocentric environmental ideology that sees animal bodies as solutions or fixes for often human‐caused environmental crises, even as, incrementally, it causes extreme ecological destruction.

In vitro quality of whole blood‐derived red cell concentrates collected, processed and stored in a blood bag set plasticized with di (2‐ethylhexyl) terephthalate

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Due to toxicity concerns, di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)—the most used plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) whole blood (WB) collection and processing bag sets—will be effectively prohibited in medical devices in Europe from 2030. Removal of DEHP will primarily impact the in vitro quality of red blood cell (RBC)

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.
