Reactive oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur species (RONSS) collectively encompasses a variety of energetically dynamic entities that emerge as inherent characteristics of aerobic life. This broad category includes reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species (RSS). A conundrum arises from the indispensable role of RONSS in redox signalling, while its overproduction in the mitochondria poses deleterious effects.

We argue that "processes versus objects" is not a useful dichotomy. There is, instead, substantial theoretical utility in viewing "objects" and "processes" as complementary ways of describing persistence through time, and hence the possibility of observation and manipulation. This way of thinking highlights the role of memory as an essential resource for observation, and makes it clear that "memory" and "time" are also mutually inter-defined, complementary concepts.

A review of ectochondral bone and the role of membranes in shaping endochondral bones of the skull.

Department of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Slippery Rock University, Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania, USA.

Bones of the skull are traditionally categorized as derived from either endochondral or intramembranous bone. In our previous work, we have observed the interaction of different tissue types in growth of the skull. We find the dichotomy of intramembranous and endochondral bone to be too restrictive, limiting our interpretation of sources of biological variation.

All of us must find the right balance between team science and fostering leadership with dynamic colleagues. That dichotomy was well-encapsulated in a famous exchange between basketball players Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant regarding there "being no 'I' in team". In our view, there is nothing more satisfying than collaborating with a team of people and publishing impactful papers or making key discoveries.
