Hans Jacob Schou (1887-1952) was a well-educated Danish specialist in nervous diseases. He was persuaded in 1922 to take over the leadership of the only large scale private institution in Denmark for patients with nervous diseases, The Colony of Philadelphia, near Dianalund, on the island of Zealand. He pioneered a development of this conservative institution into a modern charity hospital for patients with all kinds of nervous and mental disorders. His newly erected sanatorium (1928) for neurotic patients came to symbolize the need for inclusion of all patients - disregarding the seriousness of their illness and disregarding their social status - in the realm of Danish psychiatry. Thus, Schou created the foundations for modern Danish psychiatry.

is of great public health concern because of its vectorial capacity to transmit various arboviruses such as Zika, yellow fever, dengue, and chikungunya. In California, its expanding geographic distribution has been unrestrained. This urgently calls for innovative tools such as the use of sterile insect technique (SIT) to strengthen invasive control.

Mosquito Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs can be developed in smaller agencies through synchronization of the colony development to take advantage of the natural male early emergence. This paper examined key aspects of Ae. aegypti colony synchronization work, including egg hatching, larval development, and adult emergence to produce sufficient numbers of adult male mosquitoes within a specific timeframe for irradiation and release.

Color polymorphic species can offer exceptional insight into the ecology and genetics of adaptation. Although the genetic architecture of animal coloration is diverse, many color polymorphisms are associated with large structural variants and maintained by biotic interactions. Grasshoppers are notably polymorphic in both color and karyotype, which makes them excellent models for understanding the ecological drivers and genetic underpinnings of color variation.
