The role of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal/interrenal axis in mediating predator-avoidance trade-offs
Maintaining energy balance and reproducing are important for fitness, yet animals have
evolved mechanisms by which the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal/interrenal (HPA/HPI) axis …

Programming of stress-related behavior and epigenetic neural gene regulation in mice offspring through maternal exposure to predator odor
Perinatal stress mediated through the mother can lead to long-term alterations in stress-
related phenotypes in offspring. The capacity for adaptation to adversity in early life depends …

Predator-induced transgenerational plasticity in animals: a meta-analysis
There is growing evidence that the environment experienced by one generation can
influence phenotypes in the next generation via transgenerational plasticity (TGP). One of …

Transgenerational effects of infantile adversity and enrichment in male and female rats
To discover whether the accumulation of life's experiences, adverse and enriching, inform,
and serve the following generation by inheritance we examine whether stress to a weanling …

Reproductive state affects reliance on public information in sticklebacks
The degree to which animals use public and private sources of information has important
implications for research in both evolutionary ecology and cultural evolution. While …

Social information, conformity and the opportunity costs paid by foraging fish
Animals pay opportunity costs when pursuing one of several mutually exclusive courses of
action. We quantified the opportunity costs of conforming to the behaviour of others in …
