TOXIC SYNERGY: The Precarious Grasp of Human‐Snake Entanglements in a Thai Venom Facility

Cultural Anthropology, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 30-56, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Venomous snakes offer unique insight into core topics of anthropological inquiry because they are both the cause of a disease, snakebite envenoming, and the source of the cure. At a Thai facility dedicated to venomous snake husbandry for the production of antivenom, the biological pharmaceutical used in the treatment of this disease, a team of

Optimizing drug discovery for snakebite envenoming via a high-throughput phospholipase A2 screening platform

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that causes as many as 1.8 million envenomings and 140,000 deaths annually. To address treatment limitations that exist with current antivenoms, the search for small molecule drug-based inhibitors that
