Detecting environmentally dependent developmental plasticity in fossilized individuals Open
The fossil record provides the most powerful evidence of large-scale biodiversity change on Earth, but it does so at coarse and often idiosyncratic temporal scales. One critical problem that arises concerns the evolutionary consequences of…

‘Closing the Gap’: How is the Use of Non-Mainstream Schools Related to the Educational Outcomes of Children in Public Care? Open
In high-income countries, children ‘in care’ have, on average, much lower educational attainment than their peers. We explore the hypothesis that this gap can be lessened by reducing the use of non-mainstream schools (NMS). We analysed a n…
