Physical exercise affects hippocampal structure and function, but the underlying neural mechanisms and the effects of exercise intensity remain incompletely understood. Therefore, we undertook a comprehensive, multi-modal 3T and 7T MRI randomized controlled trial (Netherlands Trial Register - NL5847) in which we randomized 52 young, non-athletic volunteers to a 12-week low- or high-intensity exerc

Potable reuse of municipal wastewater is often the lowest-energy option for increasing the availability of fresh water. However, limited data are available on the energy consumption of potable reuse facilities and schemes, and the many variables affecting energy consumption obscure the process of estimating energy requirements. By synthesizing available data and developing a simple model for the e

It remains a conundrum in the evolution of sexual communication how the signals and responses can co-ordinate the changes during speciation. The genus Ostrinia contains several closely related species as well as distinctive strains with pheromone polymorphism and represents an ex-ample of ongoing speciation. Extensive studies in the genus, especially in the species the European corn borer O. nubil

Comments on Christina Fredengren in her essay Beyond Entanglement on human-animal relations, critical feminist posthumanism and nature/culture

Sammanfattningsvis kan Självbestämmandeteorin (SDT) tillämpas av lärare för att stärka elevers motivation och välbefinnande. Däremot är det inte säkert att alla elever därigenom kommer att höja sin inre motivation eller sina studieresultat. Vissa elever är helt ointresserade av vissa ämnen och i avsaknad av motivation krävs mer än att tillämpa SDT. Vidare kan inte enbart ett förändrat klassrumskli

Whole-genome sequencing of non-model organisms is now widely accessible and has allowed a range of questions in the field of molecular ecology to be investigated with greater power. However, some genomic regions that are of high biological interest remain problematic for assembly and data-handling. Three such regions are the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), sex-determining regions (SDRs) an

Organisations that deviate from ethical expectations regarding their behaviour risk damaging their image and, hence, threatening their very survival (refs.). Contemporary representations of fashion retail in media and popular culture—which depict fashion retail as a key contributor to the climate crisis—are, therefore, a challenge for retailers in general and for fashion retailers in particular.
