Sociable people have a higher abundance of certain types of gut bacteria and also more diverse bacteria, an Oxford University study has found. Dr Katerina Johnson of Oxford University's Department of Experimental Psychology has been researching the science of that 'gut feeling' - the relationship between the bacteria living in the gut (the gut microbiome) and behavioural traits.

A new paper co-authored by a University of Sussex Professor has revealed when, where and why hedgehog roadkill is most likely to occur, with the outskirts of Leeds, Manchester, Stoke on Trent and Birmingham emerging as particular blackspots for one of Britain's most iconic mammals.
