Demographic responses of hybridizing cinquefoils to changing climate in the Colorado Rocky Mountains by Kelly A. Carscadden, Daniel F. Doak, Meagan F. Oldfather, Nancy C. Emery

“…Our findings demonstrate that hybrids in this system are neither intrinsically unfit nor universally more vigorous than parents, suggesting that the demographic consequences of hybridization are context‐dependent. Our results also imply that shifts to warmer and drier conditions could have particularly negative repercussions for P. pulcherrima, which is currently the most abundant taxon in the study area, possibly as a legacy of more favorable historical climates. …”

Revolutionizing brain‒computer interfaces: overcoming biocompatibility challenges in implantable neural interfaces by Weihang Gao, Zineng Yan, Hong Zhou, Yi Xie, Honglin Wang, Jiaming Yang, Jingbo Yu, Changmao Ni, Pengran Liu, Mao Xie, Li Huang, Zhewei Ye

“…Despite significant advancements over the years, conventional neural electrode interfaces remain insufficient for fully achieving these objectives, particularly in the context of long-term implantation. The primary limitation stems from the poor biocompatibility and mechanical mismatch between the interfacing electrodes and neural tissues, which induce a local immune response and scar tissue formation, thus decreasing the performance and useful lifespan. …”

Greer, Laura J. Kunces, Loukia Lili, Stephen M. Phipps, Caleb M. Schmidt, Julian C. Schmidt, Michael A. Schmidt

“…Furthermore, the group taking kavalactones first never experienced a significant decrease in Move motivation state (lowest mean score 21.0, highest 28.6, all p ≥ 0.05), while the group receiving kavalactones in the last 2 weeks of the study had Move scores that were statistically lower than baseline (lowest mean score 8.6, highest 25.9, all p ≤ 0.05) at all time points but the last (p = 0.063) after 2 weeks of kavalactones exposure.Conclusions We report a novel finding that kavalactones may support performance by maintaining or rescuing the desire to expend energy in the context of significant physical and mental strain in well-conditioned individuals, even in a context of already normal cortisol, sleep, and mood.…”
