Defined populations of inner ear progenitor cells show limited and distinct capacities for differentiation into hair cells, neurons, and glia
Despite the fact that mammalian hair cells and neurons do not naturally regenerate in vivo, progenitor cells exist within the postnatal inner ear that can be manipulated to generate hair cells and neurons. This work reveals the differentiation capabilities of distinct inner ear progenitor …

Regulation of the development and regeneration of the zebrafish posterior lateral line
Mechanosensory hair cells located in the inner ear mediate the sensations of hearing and balance. If damaged, mammalian inner ear hair cells are unable to regenerate, resulting in permanent sensory deficits. Damage to hair cells can arise from multiple factors such as high decibel and prolonged …

Size Correlations between Sucking Lice and Their Hosts Including a Test of Harrison's Rule
… lice use their tibio-tarsal claws to grasp host hairs, therefore, correlations between claw size and host hair diameters were also tested. Raw analyses including 206 species of slide-mounted sucking lice from throughout the world, followed by analyses of phylogenetically subtracted data, were …
