Expansion of the Tibetan Plateau during the Neogene
TLDR
The results imply that deformation and mountain building significantly post-date Indo-Asian collision and challenge the suggestion that the extent of the plateau has remained constant through time.

From ‘third pole’ to north pole: a Himalayan origin for the arctic fox
TLDR
The apparent connection between an ancestral high-elevation species and its modern polar descendant is consistent with the ‘Out-of-Tibet’ hypothesis postulating that high-altitude Tibet was a training ground for cold-environment adaptations well before the start of the Ice Age.
