Article Synopsis
  • * An online survey was conducted among members of the Functional Neurosurgery Working Group to gather data on programming practices, revealing that common strategies include using traditional monopolar review and modifying amplitude for various symptoms.
  • * Results indicate that while initial programming generally follows published recommendations, there are notable inconsistencies in approaches for specific symptoms, highlighting the need for more research in areas of variability.

Invasive species with native ranges spanning strong environmental gradients are well suited for examining the roles of selection and population history in rapid adaptation to new habitats, providing insight into potential evolutionary responses to climate change. The Atlantic oyster drill (Urosalpinx cinerea) is a marine snail whose native range spans the strongest coastal latitudinal temperature gradient in the world, with invasive populations established on the US Pacific coast. Here, we leverage this system using genome-wide SNPs and environmental data to examine invasion history and identify genotype-environment associations indicative of local adaptation across the native range, and then assess evidence for allelic frequency shifts that would signal rapid adaptation within invasive populations.
