Applicability of Retzius striae in forensic anthropology: a systematic review
Abstract Forensic Anthropology applies biological characteristics in legal contexts to estimate the biological profile of an unknown individual. In this regard, teeth stand out due to their resistance and ability to preserve valuable information over time. More specifically, micr...

Economy Without Oikonomia Semantic Capture and the Disciplinary Naturalization of a Wartime Ledger
The modern word "economy" is treated as a natural category. This paper argues that it is acaptured name. Pre-modern European lexicons maintained at least four lexically distinctregisters for what the word now covers: order-management (oikonomia), money-making(chrematistike), live...

Peptide thioamides: exploiting a single-atom substitution
Peptide thioamides, in which a single backbone oxygen atom is replaced by sulfur, display markedly altered structural, spectroscopic and reactive properties relative to native amides. This personal perspective highlights our group’s exploration of the unique reactivity of peptide...
