A longitudinal study of avian pox in a small passerine, the Dunnock (Prunella modularis)
Ibis, EarlyView.Long‐term, longitudinal studies of disease in wild bird populations are rare. Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).

110 years of Avipoxvirus in the Galapagos Islands.
PLoS ONE, 2011 The role of disease in regulating populations is controversial, partly owing to the absence of good disease records in historic wildlife populations. We examined birds collected in the Galapagos Islands between 1891 and 1906 that are currently held at ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Constant visitation rates across the flowering season masked major shifts in plant and flower visitor interaction structure, specialization, species roles and trait‐driven patterns shaping interaction intensity. Plants and flower visitors changed ecological roles over time, with native flower visitors playing key roles in maintaining network cohesion ...

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.In adults with moderate AD post‐TCS and ‐TCI, who may otherwise be eligible for systemic therapy, 1.5% ruxolitinib cream improved clinical signs and symptoms in the TRuE‐AD4 study. Abstract Background In patients with moderate atopic dermatitis (AD), topical corticosteroids (TCS) and topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCI) often do not sufficiently ...

Galápagos Birds and Diseases: Invasive Pathogens as Threats for Island Species
Ecology and Society, 2004 Exotic diseases and parasites have caused extinctions on islands and continents, particularly when they spread through assemblages of immunologically naïve species.

Monogenetic Near‐Island Seamounts in the Galápagos Archipelago
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 Rarely have small seamounts on the flanks of hotspot derived ocean‐island volcanoes been the targets of sampling, due to sparse high‐resolution mapping near ocean islands.

Prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii in Galapagos birds: Inference of risk factors associated with diet.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic intracellular parasite of particular concern in the conservation of wildlife due to its ability to infect all homeotherms and potentially cause acute fatal disease in naive species.
