Submissive behavior is affected by territory structure in a social fish.

Group living may engender conflict over food, reproduction, or other resources and individuals must be able to manage conflict for social groups to persist. Submission signals are an adaptation for establishing and maintaining social hierarchy position, allowing a subordinate individual to avoid protracted and costly aggressive interactions with dominant individuals. In the daffodil cichlid fish (), subordinates may use submission signals to resolve conflicts with dominant individuals and maintain their social status within the group.

Egalitarian cooperation linked to central oxytocin levels in communal breeding house mice.

Relationships between adult females are fundamental to understanding diversity in animal social systems. While cooperative relationships between kin are known to promote fitness benefits, the proximate mechanisms underlying this are not well understood. Here we show that when related female house mice (Mus musculus domesticus) cooperate to rear young communally, those with higher endogenous oxytocin levels have more egalitarian and successful cooperative relationships.

Submissive behaviour is affected by group size in a social fish.

For social groups to form and be stable over time, animals must develop strategies to cope with conflict among group members. Animals may behave submissively either by fleeing from an aggressor, or by signalling submission. The use of these two submissive responses may vary depending on the social and ecological context.

Proceedings of the Think Tank for Osteosarcoma Medical Advisory Board.

A "Think Tank for Osteosarcoma" medical advisory board meeting was held in Santa Monica, CA, USA on February 2-3, 2024. The goal was to develop a strategic approach to prevent recurrence of osteosarcoma. Osteosarcoma metabolism and the genomic instability of osteosarcoma, immunotherapy for osteosarcoma, CAR-T cell therapy, DeltaRex-G tumor-targeted gene therapy, repurposed drugs, alternative medicines, and personalized medicine were discussed.
