Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 153-177, January 2026.ABSTRACT Kalavan‐2, a high‐altitude (∼1640 m a.s.l.) open‐air site in Armenia, preserves stratified Middle Paleolithic occupations with a rich small‐vertebrate record. Luminescence dating has placed site formation between ~60 and 45 ka, but without independent chronological control of the microvertebrate accumulation.

Sciatic Nerve Stimulation Mitigates Depression‐Like Behaviors and Memory Deficits in Stressed Mice
The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Stress causes depression and cognitive decline. With limitations in pharmacotherapy, sciatic nerve stimulation (SNS) offers a promising nondrug alternative. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic efficacy of SNS in mitigating stress‐induced depressive behaviors and memory deficits by focusing on astrocytic dysfunction and cellular ...

Rock solid: winter ecology of boreal bats at natural hibernation sites
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.Overwintering bats at northerly latitudes spend up to eight months a year in a state of dormancy: a period characterised by extended use of torpor, but not an absolute lack of activity. Although this period constitutes a majority of their yearly cycle, little is known about their ecology during this time, because of the cryptic behaviour of bats ...
