Enhancing biodiversity: historical ecology and biogeography of the Santa Catalina Island ground squirrel, .

People have influenced Earth's biodiversity for millennia, including numerous introductions of domestic and wild species to islands. Here, we explore the origins and ecology of the Santa Catalina Island ground squirrel (SCIGS; ), one of only five endemic terrestrial mammals found on California's Santa Catalina Island. We synthesized all records of archaeological/palaeontological SCIGS, conducted radiocarbon dating and stable isotope analysis of the potentially earliest SCIGS remains and performed genetic analysis of modern SCIGS.

Archaeogenomic analysis of Chesapeake Atlantic sturgeon illustrates shaping of its populations in recovery from severe overexploitation.

Atlantic sturgeon ( ssp. ) has been a food resource in North America for millennia. However, industrial-scale fishing activities following the establishment of European colonies led to multiple collapses of sturgeon stocks, driving populations such as those in the Chesapeake area close to extinction.

A pilot randomized controlled trial of an online intervention for Hodgkin lymphoma survivors to increase knowledge about late effects and recommended screening.

Background: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) survivors who received chest radiotherapy are at risk for breast cancer and cardiovascular disease, but screening adherence is low. We assessed the acceptability/feasibility of a web-based educational intervention and its impact on knowledge of health risks and screening.

Methods: HL survivors were randomized to either an interactive online educational intervention or handouts only.

Health Care Students' Perceptions of Bias During Their Clinical Training and Insights on Mitigating It.

Purpose: To understand health care students' perception of implicit bias and examine their insights to create a bias-free training environment.

Methods: Clinical phase students from one university's 4 health care programs participated in this study. Students were surveyed regarding their knowledge of implicit bias and perception of their experiences in the clinical learning environment.
