Sex is a crucial process that has molecular, genetic, cellular, organismal, and population-level consequences for eukaryotic evolution. Eukaryotic life cycles are composed of alternating haploid and diploid phases but are constrained by the need to accommodate the phenotypes of these different phases. Critical gaps in our understanding of evolutionary drivers of the diversity in algae life cycles include how selection acts to stabilize and change features of the life cycle.

Acute infections can alter foraging and movement behaviors relevant to sociality and pathogen spread. However, few studies have directly examined how acute infections caused by directly transmitted pathogens influence host social preferences. While infected hosts often express sickness behaviors (e.

To predict the biological effects of ionising radiation, the quantity of biological dose is introduced instead of the physical absorbed dose. In proton therapy, a constant relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 is usually applied clinically as recommended by the International Commission of Radiation Units and Measurements.

The hospital discharge transition is a well-known risk factor for medication-related harm. The Royal College of Physicians have created an improvement guide and resource, focusing on medication safety at hospital discharge. In this article, we discuss how we developed this resource and explore some of the lessons learnt, including the importance of involving patients and carers; understanding the discharge medicines system; appreciating everyone's roles; measuring medication safety, project spread and sustainability; and the pros and cons of a virtual working environment.
