Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Biophony in a noisy tropical urban forest fragment

Biota Colombiana, 2021
Anthropogenic noise, which is part of an urban soundscape, can negatively affect the behaviour of wild animals. Here we investigated how biophony (animal sounds) was affected by noise in an urban Brazilian forest fragment.

How Subtle Protocol Choices Can Affect Biological Conclusions: Great Tits' Response to Allopatric Mobbing Calls

Animal Behavior and Cognition, 2021
In the last ten years, numerous replicated studies showed divergent results from the original papers, leading to the recognition that science may be facing a replication crisis.

Consumer perception and communication on welfare in organic laying hen farming [PDF]

, 2012
A major reason for increased societal popularity of organic production systems is the growing general discontent with intensive farming practices. However, urbanization leads to limited knowledge of farming and farm animal welfare.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Rats synchronize locomotion with ultrasonic vocalizations at the subsecond time scale

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016
Acoustic signals have the potential for transmitting information fast across distances. Rats emit ultrasonic vocalizations of two distinct classes: ‘22-kHz’ or ‘alarm’ calls and ‘50-kHz’ calls.

The process of minimising medicine use through dialogue based animal health and welfare planning, Workshop report FIBL. In: CORE Organic project no. 1903 - ANIPLAN [PDF]

, 2011
The process of minimising medicine use through dialogue based animal health and welfare planning. Livestock are important in many organic farming systems, and it is an explicit goal to ensure high levels of animal health and welfare (AHW) through good

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Faces of time: a historical overview of rapid innovations in coding animal facial signals

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Since Charles Darwin's influential work on The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals, there have been significant advancements in how animal behaviorists identify and describe the facial signals of animals, including humans.

Sustaining Animal Health and Food Safety in Organic Farming (SAFO) [PDF]

, 2003
The organic farming sector has experienced a rapid growth over the past decades. The growth has raised the need to address food safety aspects in relation to animal health, the farm situation and the living conditions of animals.
