Here, we report on different types of shell pathologies of the enigmatic deep-sea (mesopelagic) cephalopod Spirula spirula. For the first time, we apply non-invasive imaging methods to: document trauma-induced changes in shell shapes, reconstruct the different causes an...

Abstract Similar to many addiction disorders, pathological gambling is associated with an increased preference for immediate rewards (steep temporal discounting). In healthy participants, episodic future thinking has been shown to reduce impulsivity during intertemporal...

The most lethal mass-extinction of the history of life occurred at the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB), about 252 million years ago. It resulted in the decimation of about 90% of marine taxa and led to the replacement of typical Palaeozoic by typical modern marine commu...

Speech planning is a sophisticated process. In dialog, it regularly starts in overlap with an incoming turn by a conversation partner. We show that planning spoken responses in overlap with incoming turns is associated with higher processing load than planning in silenc...

AbstractOrdered molecular interactions and structural changes must take place within the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) preintegration complex at various stages for successful viral replication. We demonstrate both physical and biochemical interactions betw...
