Agonistic interactions and vocalizations among Procellariiformes in multi-species feeding aggregations, observed through bird-borne cameras

Abstract Marine predators frequently aggregate at food sources, where interactions can range from cooperative group hunting to interference competition for resources. To investigate interactions at feeding aggregations among procellariiforms, we equipped wandering albatrosses Dio...

Multi-predator feeding aggregations in pelagic waters

Abstract Multi-predator feeding aggregations (MPFAs) are temporary co-occurrences of several species of predators simultaneously exploiting the same prey resource. Pelagic waters are home to the largest and most diverse MPFAs on the planet, however, our knowledge of the mechanism...

Comprehensive profiling of brain dynamics during anesthesia across phylogeny

Abstract The behavioral effects of anesthetics are highly conserved across species, hinting at shared and fundamental underlying mechanisms. Here we compile a dataset of multiscale neural activity during wakefulness and anesthesia, encompassing human, macaque, marmoset, mouse, ze...

Contact and recruit – the importance of acoustic communication in the foraging strategy of a flightless seabird

While foraging, seabirds use various cues to navigate, including other predators to signal the presence of inconspicuous prey. Transfers of information have been conceptualised in flying seabirds as local enhancement and foraging networks, with visual signals used over a few kilo...

Peptide-targeted cubosome and hexosome nanoassemblies mitigate mitochondrial dysfunction in a MitoPark model

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a primary pathogenic mechanism underlying dopaminergic neuron loss in the nigrostriatal pathway in Parkinson's disease (PD). To investigate mitochondrion-targeted therapeutic strategies, we utilized the MitoPark mouse model, in which mitochondrial tra...
