Animal medical systems from Apis to apes: history, recent advances and future perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2608-2624, December 2025.

The influence of sleep disruption on learning and memory in fish

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 6, December 2025.
Summary Sleep is a ubiquitous process that has been conserved in animals. Yet, our understanding of the functions of sleep largely derives from a few species. Sleep is considered to play an important role in mental processes, including learning and memory consolidation, but how widespread this relationship is across taxa remains unclear.

Potential geographic displacement of Chagas disease vectors under climate change

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 709-717, December 2025.
As a result of modelling the potential distribution of 55 triatomine species in the Neotropical region, with climate change projected for up to 2050, we found no significant changes. With climate change projected for up to 2080 in the Neotropical region, we see a significant potential for the migration of 55 species of triatomines towards the Amazon ...
