Abstract:

"In the relatively short time since its establishment as an area of research, literary animal studies has become a burgeoning field covering a significant amount of intellectual terrain: traversing, for example, thousands of years of history and an array of human-animal encounters like pet ownership and breeding, hunting, farming, and biotechnology. However, few scholars have focused their attention on “experimental animals”—that is, animals used in experiments within and beyond laboratories—and fewer still have investigated the aesthetic and ethical challenges of representing these animals (a

Abstract:

Recombinant DNA technology covers a wide range of biochemical techniques used to cut, splice, and move DNA from one organism to another. Genetic engineering began as a basic scientific study to learn more about gene expression and gene structure in bacteria. In the last 10 years the techniques of recombinant DNA technology have moved from the university research laboratory to the industrial production level. The techniques are applicable to all organisms and studies have been made of the genomes of viruses, bacteria, yeasts, animals, and plants. It is the latter, genetic engineering of plants,

Abstract:

Alice Sheldon provided perhaps the earliest call for a feminist approach to research using model organisms. Her work was grounded in ongoing debates about theoretical models and methodological issues, specifically the choice of model organisms and the interpretations of data the models produced. When she became convinced that the laboratory conditions of her day did not permit her to practice feminist science, she turned to feminist science fiction to reimagine them. This piece shows how Sheldon’s experiences as a research scientist in experimental psychology influenced her science fiction wri

Abstract:

AbstractThe United States is one of the largest consumers of meat globally. The traditional production of meat contributes substantially to climate change due to the levels of greenhouse gases emitted and the amount of land, water, feed, and other natural resources required to raise animals used for meat. Conventional meat production is also a major source for the emergence of zoonotic diseases and antimicrobial-resistant pathogens. Nevertheless, Americans consume more meat now than at any time in the nation’s history.Advocates for policy change aimed at addressing the risks currently associat

Abstract:

Stone is turned into meat. This spectacular project entitled “Prometheus delivered” is an installation that Thomas Feuerstein stages as a fascinating laboratory of bubbling bioreactors, mysterious fluids, pumps and endless tubes which wind around a classicist marble sculpture of Prometheus and meander through the entire exhibition. It is the first major solo exhibition of the Austrian artist in Munich. At the center of the installation is a sculpture, a replica of the Prometheus statue by Nicolas-Sébastien Adam (1762), and features its gradual decomposition. The miraculous protagonists of this

Abstract:

During the early twentieth century, the Bermuda Biological Station for Research (BBSR) functioned as a multipurpose scientific site. Jointly founded by New York University, Harvard University, and the Bermuda Natural History Society, the BBSR created opportunities for a mostly US-based set of practitioners to study animal biology in the field. I argue that mixed gender field stations like the BBSR supported professional advancement in science, while also operating as important places for women and men to experiment with the social and cultural work of identity formation, courtship and marriage

Abstract:

1. In freely behaving Aplysia brasiliana, spontaneous swimming in the laboratory occurred primarily in the dark hours of the day-night cycle. Suspending an intact animal above the substrate elicited continuous parapodial flapping with the same frequency and amplitude as spontaneous swimming. Parapodial flapping with decreased frequency and amplitude could still be elicited by suspending minimally dissected, but not more radically dissected, preparations. 2. In otherwise intact animals, severing the cerebropedal connective (CPC) bilaterally abolished suspended parapodial flapping, but normal fl

Abstract:

Monoamines are well known to modulate locomotion in several vertebrate species. Coapplication of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) has also been shown to potently induce fictive locomotor rhythms in isolated spinal cord preparations. However, a synergistic contribution of these monoamines to locomotor rhythmogenesis in vivo has never been examined. Here, we characterized the effects induced by selective DA and 5-HT receptor agonists on hindlimb movement induction in completely spinal cord transected (adult) mice.

Abstract:

In this article, I explore questions of laboratory animal agency in dialogue with Thalia Field’s literary text “Experimental Animals: A Reality Fiction” (2016). Using the framework of “care” (understood, following María Puig de la Bellacasa 2017, as a multi-dimensional concept comprising affect, ethics, and practice), I consider how Field’s synaesthetic descriptions of animal suffering create an affective response in readers, alerting them to a shared carnal vulnerability. Indeed, rather than anthropomorphizing animals through narration or focalization, Field “stays with the body” to consider

Abstract:

Mosaic animals have provided the platform for many fundamental discoveries in develop- mental biology, cell biology, and other fields. Techniques to produce mosaic animals by mitotic recombination have been extensively developed in Drosophila melanogaster but are less common for other laboratory organisms. Here, we report mosaic analysis by gRNA- induced crossing-over (MAGIC), a new technique for generating mosaic animals based on DNA double-strand breaks produced by CRISPR/Cas9. MAGIC efficiently produces mosaic clones in both somatic tissues and the germline of Drosophila. Fur

Abstract:

Several years ago, my colleagues and I developed a project-based assignment where students create a fictional animal and predict its ability to thrive in a hypothetical environment by examining the interactions between different combinations of designs for selected body systems. This assignment, which was implemented at different types of institutions and for different levels of students, can be readily adapted to either lecture-based or laboratory courses. Here I describe how students design a fictional animal as a semester-long collaborative group project in an interactive lecture course on

Abstract:

Since its return in 2005 the science fiction series Doctor Who (BBC1) has featured many alien creatures which bear a striking similarity to non-human Earth species: the Judoon in “Smith and Jones” (2007) have heads like rhinoceroses; the nurses in “New Earth” (2006) are cats in wimples; the Tritovores in “Planet of the Dead” (2009) are giant flies in boilersuits. Yet only one non-human animal has appeared twice in the series, in unrelated stories: the pig. Furthermore, alien races such as the Judoon and the Tritovores simply happen to look like human species, and the series offers no narrative

Abstract:

Currently, antiviral drugs are targeted at specific viruses, requiring extensive research to develop de novo before a trial molecule is approved for a single viral target. However, it is possible that a strategic asset for mainstreaming antivirals has been hiding in plain sight. In our recent article published in Frontiers in Pharmacology, we explored the scope for plant-derived polyphenols, such as flavonoids, to be applied against infections spanning phylogenetically unrelated virus families. Beyond a long history of safe use in ordinary diet, common polyphenols also feature promiscuous bind

By the time the third entry in the series, Shark Attack 3, aired in 2002, mutant great whites had lost their lustre and were replaced as antagonists with the megalodon: a giant shark originating not in any laboratory, but history, having lived from approximately 23 to 3.6 million years ago. The megalodon was resurrected again in May 2021 through a trifecta of events. A video of a basking shark encounter in the Atlantic went viral on the social media platform TikTok, due to users m

Abstract:

Despite numerous critics describing him as an auteur (i.e. a film-maker who ‘does’ everything and fulfils every production role [Bordwell and Thompson 37] and/or with a signature “world-view” detectable in his/her work [Caughie 10]), Rolf de Heer appears to have declined primary authorship of Dance Me to My Song (1997), his seventh in an oeuvre of twelve feature films. Indeed, the opening credits do not mention his name at all: it is only with the closing credits that the audience learns de Heer has directed the film. Rather, as the film commences, the viewer is informed by the titles that it
