Roman-era Delicacies Revived for a Banquet in Spain
Archaeologists and chefs in Spain have collaborated to recreate Roman-era dishes for a special banquet in Italica, the ancient home of Roman emperors Trajan and Adrian. Chef Antonio Bort expressed that understanding Roman culinary practices could inspire modern cooking. The banquet featured dishes such as lamb stew with oxygarum, wild boar and venison stuffing, and cibarium bread made from einkorn wheat.

Landscape genomics: natural selection drives the evolution of mitogenome in penguins
The study investigates the evolution of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) in penguins, driven by natural selection in response to environmental variables such as sea surface temperature and chlorophyll levels. Using Next Generation Sequencing, the research analyzes patterns of selection in the mtDNA of penguins from two genera, Spheniscus and Pygoscelis, across their distributional ranges. The findings reveal that mtDNA genes, particularly those involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), show signatures of purifying and positive selection, correlating with environmental factors. The study highlights the impact of historical and ongoing climate changes on penguin species diversification and adaptation, emphasizing the importance of understanding genetic responses to environmental changes for predicting future adaptations.
Man's best friend: This rescue dog's training may save your life
The article discusses the role of the Spanish Military Emergency unit, particularly its canine unit, in providing disaster relief both within Spain and internationally. The unit's dogs are trained to search for victims of catastrophes, whether dead or alive. The training focuses on enhancing the dogs' search skills, physical fitness, socialization, stress management, and obedience. The dogs are capable of scanning large areas quickly, significantly faster than humans with equipment. The unit, which includes 36 canine teams, recently assisted in recovering around 40 victims' bodies after the earthquake in Mexico. The article highlights the importance of the bond between the dogs and their handlers and the efficiency and autonomy of the dogs in emergency situations.
