Scavenger dynamics at cervid carcasses in a chronic wasting disease endemic zone
This study quantifies scavenger species use of 20 deer carcasses in a chronic wasting disease endemic zone, including species‐specific time spent on carcasses and carcass materials consumed. We discuss the implications of our results for scavengers' roles in potential disease transmission dynamics.

Assessment of coronary artery outward remodeling in consequence of excision of epicardial adipose tissue in Ossabaw swine [PDF]
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) results from the buildup of cholesterol, inflammatory factors, and proliferating smooth muscle cells within a vessel wall. This plaque impedes on the vessel lumen, decreasing the space through which blood can flow,

Simultaneous zero echo time fMRI of rat brain and spinal cord
Abstract Purpose Functional assessments of the central nervous system (CNS) are essential for many areas of research. fMRI typically targets either the brain or the spinal cord, but usually not both, because of the obstacles associated with simultaneous image acquisitions from distant fields of view (FOVs) with conventional MRI.
