Survival is commonly the most critical factor influencing population growth in long‐lived species. Hence, identifying factors shaping variation of survival rates is crucial to understand and predict population trajectories in a changing world. We investigated the factors influencing survival in a long‐lived diurnal bird of prey, analysing the effectsof

Biallelic FGF4 Variants Linked to Thoracic Dystrophy and Respiratory Insufficiency
We report three people from two unrelated families with a clinical diagnosis of thoracic dystrophy characterized by short or missing ribs, narrow chest, and respiratory insufficiency. Affected people each have rare, biallelic, predicted deleterious missense substitutions in FGF4, a gene known to be essential for the formation of the thoracic skeleton ...
