Four centuries of commercial whaling eroded 11,000 years of population stability in bowhead whales

This study uses fossil data and modeling to show that commercial whaling caused genetic diversity loss in bowhead whales, threatening their resilience to future climate change.

Insights into bear evolution from a Pleistocene polar bear genome

This paper analyzes ancient and modern polar and brown bear genomes to study evolutionary history and gene flow, finding evidence of ancient introgression from brown bears into polar bears.

Gene edited fluorescent cerebral organoids to study human brain function and disease

The paper introduces a method using gene-edited fluorescent cerebral organoids to study human brain function and disease by reducing inter-organoid variability through mixed cell line labeling.

Detecting Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Trauma Patients using Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry: a Novel Approach to Medication Reconciliation

This paper develops an LCMS-based assay to detect DOACs in trauma patients, achieving high accuracy and identifying potential medication reconciliation issues.

Evolutionary implications of the microRNA- and piRNA complement of Lepidodermella squamata (Gastrotricha)

This study identifies miRNA and piRNA complements in Lepidodermella squamata, supporting a close evolutionary relationship between gastrotrichs and flatworms.

Strong and lasting impacts of past global warming on baleen whale and prey abundance

The paper assesses the demographic changes of baleen whales and their prey over 30,000 years, showing strong correlations with past global warming and oceanographic changes.
