  • Chapter 23 Hunter-Gatherer Families and Parenting
    797 Chapter 23 Hunter-Gatherer Families and Parenting Coren L. Apicella and Alyssa N. Crittenden Our species is characterized by remarkable biological success. In the past 10,000 years, since the advent of agriculture, our population has increased over 1,000-fold (Coale, 1974; Westing, 2013). We have successfully populated all reaches of the planet, calling the most extreme of habitats, home. This remarkable success is largely a consequence of our extraordinary ability to cooperate with one another. While cooperation is observed in many other species, human cooperation is anomalous in both scale and nature. Humans are unique in that they form long-lasting, nonreproductive ties with genetically unrelated individuals. Social learning in humans further accentuates the utility of cooperative ties by allowing adaptive information to accrue over many generations (Boyd & Richerson, 2009). It was these cognitive and social processes that enabled us to adapt to a wide-range of environments and ultimately led to our unsurpassed success (Tennie, Call, & Tomasello, 2009). Possibly the biggest challenge faced by our Pleistocene ancestors, who lived roughly 2.5 million years ago until the advent of agriculture, was how to raise energetically expensive, big-brained children in unpredictable and changing climates. The solution to this problem was to extend cooperation beyond the pair bond and nuclear families (Emlen, 1995; Hill & Hurtado, 2009; Hrdy, 1999). Thus, in order to understand hunter-gatherer families and parenting, one must consider the reproductive

  • Security Implications of Emerging Biotechnologies: Workshop Summary, Analysis, and Recommendations
    Security Implications of Emerging Biotechnologies: Workshop Summary, Analysis, and Recommendations Diane DiEuliis and Charles Lutes June 2016 Security Implications of Emerging Biotechnologies Workshop Summary, Analysis, and Recommendations Diane DiEuliis and Charles Lutes On April 26th, 2016, the Center for the Study of Weapons of Mass Destruction (CSWMD) at National Defense University held a workshop to explore “Security Implications of Emerging Biotechnologies.” Participants from government, NGOs and academia discussed opportunities and challenges of a new era of biotechnology, one highlighted by the advancing ease with which the genomes of organisms can be engineered for specific purposes, potentially more rapidly than we are prepared to assess and deal responsibly with its ramifications. Synthetic biology and associated genome editing tools will be essential for addressing the global challenge of resource scarcity, provide unprecedented advances in public health and medicine, and create innovative products that can support national defense, as well as commodities that stimulate the US economy. At the same time, new dual-use technologies will present significant challenges to biosecurity, biosafety, and have already begun to generate ethical and moral dilemmas. Participants stressed the need to address these issues in ways that do not stifle the technology’s advancement nor America’s competitiveness in the global bioeconomy. The workshop was convened to consider the potential biosecurity concerns of emerging biotechnologies and their impact on national security. The dual use problem was discussed in the context of “biosecurity by design,” a concept conceived specifically in preparation for the workshop in which government, industry, academia, national laboratories, and individual users should be mindful of developing potential security solutions at each step of technology development.

  • OST: Public Access to Federally Funded Research
    Response to the Office of Science and Technology Policy public consultation on Public Access to Federally Funded Research To: Office of Science and Technology Policy Attn: Open Government Recommendations 725 17th Street Washington, DC 20502 via e-mail to: [email protected] January 2010 The Royal Society welcomes the opportunity to respond to the OSTP consultation on public access to federally funded research. The issue of open access, in general, of which this consultation is a significant part is of critical importance to the future development of scholarly communication and we believe it is essential to consult as widely as possible before preparing any legislation. Introduction The Royal Society is the UK’s national academy of science and has been publishing scientific journals since 1665 when Philosophical Transactions was founded. Philosophical Transactions effectively invented the system of peer review which is now standard practice for all high quality journals. It is now published biweekly and is the world's longest running scientific journal. The Society publishes seven peer reviewed journals in all: Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A and Proceedings of the Royal Society A cover mathematics, the physical sciences and engineering; Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B and Proceedings of the Royal Society B cover the biological sciences; Biology Letters provides rapid publication of short articles on all aspects of biology; Journal of the Royal Society Interface is a high impact, international journal covering interdisciplinary research at the boundary between the physical and life sciences; Notes and Records of the Royal Society is dedicated to the history of science.

  • The Royal Society Moves to Continuous Publication
    Insights – 26(2), July 2013 Royal Society moves to continuous publication | Helen Duriez 350 years at the cutting edge of scientific publishing – the Royal Society moves to continuous publication ‘Continuous publication’ is a digital-friendly concept that does exactly what it says on the tin. It is the idea that individual journal articles are published online, in their final format, as soon as they are ready. Collectively, they form a continuous feed of published articles. These articles are no longer constrained by the traditional print schedule, which means that citation details are available straight away and the reader has confidence that they are reading the version of record. A number of newly launched journals have experimented with a continuous format over the past few years, although to see established journals making the switch to a different publication model is still rare. So when the Royal Society, publisher of the world’s first science journal, decided to transition its titles to a continuous publication model, it was a bold move. This case study examines the reasons behind the move and the lessons that were learned. Introduction The Royal Society publishes nine peer-reviewed journals across the physical and biological sciences, including the world’s first science journal: Philosophical Transactions (now published in two parts, A1 and B2). In recent years, digital usage of its suite of journals has steadily overtaken print, to the point where the journals are now primarily found and downloaded from the internet. With the introduction of systematic digital archiving and curation, it has become clear that the future of published research will almost exclusively HELEN DURIEZ be online, and therefore steps are being taken towards removing the constraints that print ePublishing Manager production places upon online publication.

  • 1 Partner Choice in Human Evolution
    1 Partner choice in human evolution: The role of cooperation, foraging ability, and culture in Hadza campmate preferences Kristopher M. Smitha Coren L. Apicellab* Department of Psychology, University of Pennsylvania, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104 a [email protected] b [email protected] * Corresponding author 2 Abstract The ability to choose the partners we interact with is thought to have been an important driver in the evolution of human social behavior, and in particular, our propensity to cooperate. Studies showing that humans prefer to interact with cooperative others is often cited as support for partner choice driving the evolution of cooperation. However, these studies are largely drawn from Western samples, where conditions for partner choice to operate may be especially favorable. Here, we investigate qualities associated with being a preferred partner (i.e., campmate) in Hadza hunter-gatherers of Tanzania in 2016 and 2019. A total of 156 Hadza participants from 17 camps ranked their campmates on generosity, foraging ability, and their preference for them as future campmates. In 2016, Hadza preferred more generous people and better hunters as campmates, with evidence suggesting a stronger preference for better hunters; however, the relationship between generosity and being a preferred campmate was greater in 2019 than in 2016, such that the preference for generous people was stronger than the preference for better foragers, suggesting that campmate preferences are changing. These new findings contrast with reports on data from nearly a decade ago, suggesting that the Hadza do not prefer more cooperative campmates. Further, in 2019, there was anecdotal evidence that Hadza with greater exposure to outside cultural institutions (e.g., schooling, having a job, or living in a village) had a stronger preference for generous campmates than those with less exposure.
