Complex three-dimensional rearing environments amplify compensatory plasticity following early blindness
The neocortex has a remarkable capacity to alter its functional organization and connectivity in response to sensory loss, particularly if this loss occurs early in life. A key question is whether this cross-modal reorganization is driven by sensory deprivation or by enhanced use of the spared senses. We investigated how different rearing environments shape neural responses in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) of short-tailed opossums ( Monodelphis domestica) , following elimination of visual i…

The result could put the state into a political deadlock.
It would take an extr…

Mit der Studie ergibt vieles wieder Sinn, wenn davon gesprochen wird, dass »die Politik«™ Sorgen ernst nehmen müsse – die Sorgen sind nämlich rassistischer Natur und weniger Abstiegsängste. Passt auch zum Sachsen-Anhalt-Monitor 2025, demzufolge 90 Prozent mit ihrem Leben zufrieden sind. Nur die Ausländer, Schmarozer und Queers stört den Deutschen.

Supporters of Germany’s far-right AfD party are concerned about immigration rather than feeling deprived
Is concern about immigration sufficient to account for the increasing success of Germany’s right-wing populist party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD)? Or does socio-economic deprivation also matter? Using German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) data from 2014 to 2024, we find that concern about immigration alone accounts for about 75 percent of explicable variation in AfD support and even for 90 percent of explicable variation in voting behaviour. Therefore, variables that measure deprivation ex…
