‘Panic attacks happen when we, either seemingly randomly or due to an excess of anxious thoughts, are triggered into “fight, flight or freeze” mode, a rather outdated and strong response from the older part of the brain originally designed to prepare the body to fight off attacks from thi...
The human brain and body are wired to look for threats, to keep us safe. Whenever a 'ping' goes off, it drags us out of flow, and for many it has become a stress trigger. This can fire off the 'fight-flight-freeze' response, flooding the body with adrenalin and cortisol, adding t...
The chapter develops a 48-category matrix of defensivity and offensivity behaviors, expanding the classic fight-flight-freeze response by adding 45 categories, e.g., fend off, fend for, and fence off. The matrix is built on intersecting dimensions, with the major ones in the first part of...
"Vast swaths of the west coast is on fire, huge parts of the midwest are worried about crop failures from a multi-day freeze, hurricanes are crashing into the south and south east, over 1000 people a day are dying from a pandemic, rent is still going up right alongside tuition, and he...
(5 μm, 4.6*250 mm, Waters Inc). Peptides were combined into 17 fractions in each leaf sample and 18 fractions in each root sample and were freeze-dried. Each fraction was redissolved with 5 μl 0.1% formic acid (FA) and passed through a NanoLC-MS/MS system using EASY-nLC...

Three scales were applied to describe donkeys' response to 12 stimuli. Genetic parameters were estimated using multivariate models with year, sex, husbandry system and stimulus as fixed effects and age as a linear and quadratic covariable. Heritabilities were moderate, 0.18 +/- 0.020 to 0.21 +/...
