The relationship between microbial community succession, decay, and anatomical character loss in non-biomineralised animals

This study investigates the role of microbial communities in decay and anatomical character loss, finding that endogenous bacteria dominate and that microbial succession does not control anatomical decay sequences.

Investigating the impact of X-rays on decay: X-ray computed tomography as a non-invasive visualisation technique for sediment-based decay experiments

This study tests the impact of X-ray computed tomography (XCT) on decay of Danio rerio carcasses in sediment, finding no deviation in decay sequence and validating XCT as a non-destructive visualization method.

Cellular mechanotransduction of human osteoblasts in microgravity

This study investigates how microgravity affects human fetal osteoblasts by measuring cell mechanics and signaling changes in space compared to ground controls.

Accelerated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Aging in Space

This study shows spaceflight accelerates hematopoietic stem cell aging through molecular changes like reduced dormancy and mutagenesis, suggesting potential for prevention.

Distinct non-coding RNA cargo of extracellular vesicles from M1 and M2 human primary macrophages

This study compares the small RNA cargo of extracellular vesicles from M1 and M2 human macrophages, identifying distinct non-coding RNA profiles associated with each phenotype.

Modification of forests by people means only 40% of remaining forests have high ecosystem integrity

The paper quantifies global forest modification, finding 40.5% of remaining forests have high ecosystem integrity, mostly in specific regions, and highlights the need for policies to protect these areas.
