Bees remain heat tolerant after acute exposure to desiccation and starvation.

Organisms may simultaneously face thermal, desiccation and nutritional stress under climate change. Understanding the effects arising from the interactions among these stressors is relevant for predicting organisms' responses to climate change and for developing effective conservation strategies. Using both dynamic and static protocols, we assessed for the first time how sublethal desiccation exposure (at 16.

Acute exposure to sublethal doses of neonicotinoid insecticides increases heat tolerance in honey bees.

The European honey bee, Apis mellifera L., is the single most valuable managed pollinator in the world. Poor colony health or unusually high colony losses of managed honey bees result from a myriad of stressors, which are more harmful in combination.

The Impact of Dry-Land Sprint Start Training on the Short Track Speed Skating Start.

Haug, WB, Drinkwater, EJ, Cicero, NJ, Barthell, JA, and Chapman, DW. The impact of dry-land sprint start training on the short track speed skating start. J Strength Cond Res 33(2): 544-548, 2019-This investigation sought to determine the effects of dry-land sprint start training on short track speed skating (STSS) start performance.

Neonatal drug withdrawal.

In recent years, the number of babies exposed to both illegal and prescribed drugs during pregnancy has increased. This has led to an increase in the number of babies born with addiction. This article describes the signs of neonatal drug withdrawal and suggests a comprehensive approach to preventing and treating it.

Feature-positive and feature-negative learning in honey bees.

Honey bees (Apis mellifera anatolica) were subjected to sequential trials where they were given the choice between a feature-positive and a feature-negative feeding plate. The 'feature' being manipulated is the presence of a single blue circle among three circles marking the location of a small sucrose reward. That is, a 'feature-negative' target had three white circles, while a 'feature-positive' target had two white circles and one blue one.
