Coping with the cold: black-capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) use rapid facultative hypothermia to reduce fat loss overnight - Journal of Comparative Physiology B
Heat loss due to a large surface-area-to-volume ratio makes surviving periods of cold temperatures a challenge for small endothermic animals. Many temperate, non-migratory birds survive cold winter ni...

#NewPaperAlert! Happy to share our new paper on immunological feedback loops with Clay Cressler, Dan Metz and @grahammunology.bsky.social! In this paper we use a mathematical model to connect immune dynamics and infection duration.
Immunological feedback loops generate parasite persistence thresholds that explain variation in infection duration | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Infection duration affects individual host fitness and between-host transmission. Whether an infection is cleared or becomes chronic depends on the complex interaction between host immune responses an...

Artist's reconstruction of a narrow blue fish with very long projecting fin rays on a black background speckled with bright colours. This is Dibango volans, a highly unusual fossil teleost fish from the Eocene of Bolca (Italy), reconstructed shown feeding on bioluminescent plankton at night. An image of the fossil (MCSNV T.293) is shown in the lower right corner (scale bar at lower right of fossil is 10 mm). Digital painting is by Margaux Boetsch.

Epigenetic silencing of interleukin-10 by host-derived oxidized phospholipids supports a lethal inflammatory response to infections
