Contrasting Patterns of Plants, Bees, Hoverflies and Spiders in Different Habitats in a Central European Agricultural Landscape

Ecology and Evolution
Semi‐natural grasslands and their biodiversity decline rapidly, although they are key elements of agricultural landscapes. Therefore, there is a need for the re‐establishment of semi‐natural grasslands in intensively managed farmlands (e.g., via sowing ...

Habitat-Dependency of Transect Walk and Pan Trap Methods for Bee Sampling in Farmlands

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2019
Bees are the most important group of flower visitors providing an essential ecosystem service, namely pollination. Due to the worldwide decline of bees, there should be standardized sampling methods in place to ensure consistent and comparable results ...

Future trade-offs and synergies among ecosystem services in Mediterranean forests under global change scenarios

Ecosystem Services, 2020
Mediterranean forests play a key role in providing services and goods to society, and are currently threatened by global change. We assessed the future provision of ecosystem services by Mediterranean pine forests under a set of management and climate ...

MASH Background Confers Enhanced Disease Susceptibility and Acetaminophen Toxicity in iPSC‐Derived Liver Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work establishes a novel method for generating multicellular liver organoids from control and MASH donor iPSCs. The model recapitulates several disease‐specific characteristics, with MASH donor‐derived organoids showing higher susceptibility. Lipidomic profiling of MASH organoids closely resembles MASH liver biopsies.

Human‐Centered Innovation: Precision Nutrition and the Future of Food

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nutritional science is moving beyond one‐size‐fits‐all recommendations toward more precise and personalized approaches, yet its implementation pathway remains unclear. This paper proposes a human‐centered precision nutrition framework that highlights the central roles of artificial intelligence (AI), food innovation, and human agency.

Grasslands-more important for ecosystem services than you might think

Ecosphere, 2019
Extensively managed grasslands are recognized globally for their high biodiversity and their social and cultural values. However, their capacity to deliver multiple ecosystem services (ES) as parts of agricultural systems is surprisingly understudied ...

Polychip‐A High‐Throughput Droplet Microfluidics Platform for Interrogating Microbial Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polychip, a fully integrated droplet microfluidics platform, enables high‐throughput, single‐cell resolution screening of polymicrobial interactions. By seamlessly combining six automated microfluidics operations on a single chip, the system accelerates antimicrobial discovery by 11 to 14 times compared to traditional robotic methods.

Integrating ecosystem services within spatial biodiversity conservation prioritization in the Alps

Ecosystem Services, 2020
As anthropogenic degradation of biodiversity and ecosystems increases, so does the potential threat to the supply of ecosystem services, a key contribution of nature to people.
