Partner cues and individual variation underlie sex-reversed parental care in poison frogs

The paper investigates sex-reversed parental care in poison frogs, finding that female care propensity is influenced by partner cues and individual variation, with distinct gene expression patterns in non-caregiving females.

Early development of the glucocorticoid stress response in dyeing poison frog tadpoles

This study examines the development of the glucocorticoid stress response in dyeing poison frog tadpoles and finds it develops early in ontogeny, differing from other species due to unique ecological pressures.

Timing-dependent effects of elevated maternal glucocorticoids on offspring brain gene expression in a wild small mammal

This study examines how timing of maternal glucocorticoid exposure affects offspring brain gene expression in wild red squirrels, finding timing-dependent effects on neural gene transcription.
