Mashup Score: 6The fructose survival hypothesis for obesity | Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences - 2 year(s) ago
The fructose survival hypothesis proposes that obesity and metabolic disorders may have developed from over-stimulation of an evolutionary-based biologic response (survival switch) that aims to protect animals in advance of crisis. The response is …

Studying fruit traits and their interactions with seed dispersers can improve how we interpret patterns of biodiversity, ecosystem function and evolution. Mounting evidence suggests that fruit ethanol is common and variable, and may exert selective …

Interesting paper investigating the relationship between contact patterns, transmission modes and pathogen traits. It concludes that fluid transmission modes select for pathogens with prolonged shedding . Not sure how classification was done, fi norovirus https://t.co/dgQXlGJdla https://t.co/yj1nckKHis

We need a more nuanced model of which settings and activities are safe/unsafe. This paper models "transmission hot zones" where people come together repeatedly & for prolonged periods - hospitals, care homes, food processing plants etc. What about schools? https://t.co/2eGp5XDiKv
