Height in early adulthood is an indicator that integrates across different dimensions of sustainable human development with links to health and longevity, nutrition, education and economic productivity.

Gene flow analysis reveals that the genomes of most sub-Saharan populations are the result of recent historical admixture events.

Connectomics of the octopus 'fan-out fan-in’ learning network reveals that the intermediate layer uses approximately 22×10⁶ excitatory interneurons, each can store a single sensory input, while approximately 400×10³ integrating inhibitory interneurons adjust the network output level.

A computational model of the neuronal network that recognizes mating signals reveals network properties that support and constrain behavioral diversity in a species group.

Reconstruction of great auk population dynamics suggests that hunting pressure alone could have been responsible for their extinction, demonstrating that even abundant, widespread species can be vulnerable to intense exploitation.
