Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

Success of restoration strategies in preventing extirpation of 2 critically endangered coral species

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract An unprecedented marine heatwave in 2023 caused widespread coral bleaching and mortality throughout the Caribbean. In the Florida Keys (USA), 2 foundation species, elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata) and staghorn coral (Acropora cervicornis), were severely affected.

Machine Learning Model for an App‐Based Tool to Assist With the Diagnosis of Canine Atopic Dermatitis

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 236-246, April 2026.
Canine atopic dermatitis (cAD) is a chronic condition requiring life‐long management. Accurate diagnosis can be challenging, with no reliable diagnostic test. This study aimed to generate a simple diagnostic model for cAD. This model is a relevant prototype for an app‐based tool to support general practitioners in the diagnosis of cAD alongside ...

Risk of Secondary Extinction in the Asian Songbird Trade, as Exemplified by the Selling of Crested Jayshrikes as Master Birds

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 33-45, March 2026.
The Asian Songbird Crises negatively affects so‐called master birds, species that are used to increase the song complexity of competitive songbirds. We assessed the trade in a master bird, the crested jayshrike, in Indonesia before and after its legal protection.

运动训练促进脑卒中后神经可塑性的机制研究

Zhongshan Daxue xuebao. Yixue kexue ban, 2021
运动训练是脑卒中后康复治疗的主要手段。运动训练可以促进脑卒中后神经功能的恢复，其作用目前普遍认为与神经可塑性有关，但具体机制未明。运动训练的神经可塑性机制是当前脑卒中康复研究领域的热点问题。运动训练可以调节脑卒中后脑内血流动力学变化、血管新生、神经炎症反应、营养因子分泌、神经细胞死亡及新生等。本文基于国内外研究，探讨脑卒中后最适的运动干预方案，并结合我们团队在运动训练促进脑卒中后神经功能恢复方向所做的系列研究工作，对运动训练促进脑卒中后神经可塑性的机制研究进行综述。

Deep Learning–Driven Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering–Lateral Flow Immunoassay With Au Nanostars for High‐Accuracy Respiratory Virus Detection

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The high accuracy in surface‐enhanced Raman scattering‐lateral flow immunoassays (SERS–LFIAs) is critical for reliable point‐of‐care testing (POCT) in clinical diagnostics. Conventional approaches are often affected by sampling variability and uneven distribution of immunoprobes, leading to unreliable signal fluctuations.

Weaving knowledges to support wildlife health surveillance in Kenya's pastoral rangelands

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract In wildlife–livestock–human interfaces, pathogens capable of spreading between wild and domestic animals and humans have important implications for conservation outcomes, economics, and public health. Robust wildlife health surveillance can help address these risks.

Challenges in Collaborative Domestic Emergency Management in Canada: Stakeholders' Perspectives on the Role of the Military

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 16, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Research examining the complexities and operational structures of civil–military coordination within large‐scale disaster response frameworks in Canada remains scant. This study addresses this gap by critically evaluating existing civil–military coordination mechanisms, identifying systemic deficiencies, and proposing evidence‐based strategic ...
