Expanding the Fish‐Brain Invitrome With the Senegalese Sole SsB‐1 Cell Line—A Versatile Model for Neurotropic Virus Research

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cell lines are essential tools for studying animal physiology and immunopathology, reducing the use of live animals and supporting the 3Rs principle of reduction, refinement, and replacement. The Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis), a relevant species for Spanish aquaculture diversification, lacks established in vitro models. We developed SsB‐

Spatial Strategies in Coral Transplantation: A Systematic Review of Clustered Versus Widespread Configurations

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Active coral reef restoration incorporates ecological engineering principles. Yet, the spatial arrangement of transplanted colonies, one of the few design parameters directly controlled by practitioners, remains poorly explored empirically. We conducted a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines to evaluate how clustered (high‐density ...
