Climate change can alter species interactions by shifting phenology and species distributions. Batesian mimicry is one such interaction in which mimic protection is often assumed to depend on temporal and spatial overlap with defended models, although recent studies suggest strict synchrony may not always be required. To examine long‐term mimic–model phenological dynamics, we compiled flight season data for bumblebee models an...

The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed. However, individuals experience weather, rather than climate, such that climate effects could be seen as the cumulative effects of weather over...

The development of inhaled drugs for respiratory diseases is frequently impacted by lung pathology in non-clinical safety studies. To enable design of novel candidate drugs with the right safety profile, predictive in vitro lung toxicity assays are required that can be applied during drug discovery for early hazard identification and mitigation. Here, we describe a novel high-content imaging-based screening assay that allows f...

Evidence supporting the benefits of locomotor training (LT) to improve walking ability following stroke are inconclusive and could likely be improved with a better understanding of the effects of individual parameters i.e., body weight support (BWS), speed, and therapist assistance and their interactions with walking ability and specific impairments. We evaluated changes in muscle activity of thirty-seven individuals with chro...

According to the stress gradient hypothesis (SGH), ecological interactions between organisms shift positively as environmental stress increases. In the case of associational resistance, habitat is modified to ameliorate stress, benefitting other organisms. The SGH is contentious due to conflicting evidence and theoretical perspectives, so we adopted a meta‐analytic approach to determine if it is widely supported across a varie...

Purpose Heat stress exacerbates post-exercise hypotension (PEH) and cardiovascular disturbances from elevated body temperature may contribute to exertion-related incapacity. Mast cell degranulation and muscle mass are possible modifiers, though these hypotheses lack practical evidence. This study had three aims: (1) to characterise pre–post-responses in histamine and mast cell tryptase (MCT), (2) to investigate relationships b...
