The Size of Greater India: Estimates by Comparing the Apparent Polar Wander Paths of the Tethyan Himalaya and the Indian Craton

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The northern extent of Greater India is a critical, yet highly debated, parameter for reconstructing the India‐Asia collision. Previous paleomagnetic estimates, including the fill‐the‐gap and fixed great circle approaches, yield widely varying results, spanning from ∼200 to ∼3,000 km. These large discrepancies stem principally from two primary

Perspectives for pharmaceutical screening at XFEL sources using the example of Lassa virus endonuclease

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 10, Page 1181-1194, October 2026.
To facilitate structure‐based drug development, XFEL sources are of paramount interest. Here, we analyse the feasibility and data quality of serial femtosecond X‐ray crystallography compound screening at Linac Coherent Light Source and compare it with PETRA III synchrotron experiments.

A Shallow‐Marine Ecosystem Before Initial Tibetan Plateau Uplift

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau profoundly influences global atmospheric circulation, sediment transport, and biodiversity, but its pre‐uplift marine paleoenvironment remains poorly understood. Here we report the first discovery of an in situ benthic fossil assemblage from the Puga area in central Tibet, which was deposited on a shallow ...

An outbreak investigation of a highly fatal Lassa Fever in Bo District, Sierra Leone, 2023

Journal of Interventional Epidemiology and Public Health
Introduction: Lassa fever is endemic in West Africa, with an estimated 100,000 to 300,000 infections and 5,000 deaths annually. On February 1, 2023, the Bo District Surveillance Team received a notification from a community in the district about ...

A review of lassa fever outbreaks in Nigeria from 1969 to 2017: Epidemiologic profile, determinants and public health response

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2018
Introduction: Lassa fever outbreaks have occurred in Nigeria since the 1969 till date. This is in spite of the fact that the reservoir and modes of transmission have been known for all these years.

Early Eocene Compressional Deformation in the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau Recorded by Magnetic Fabrics of the Longzhong Basin

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Intracontinental deformation records how early Eocene India–Asia collisional stress propagated into continental interiors. How rapidly compression reached the far field, and whether coeval Paleo‐Pacific slab dynamics contributed, remain debated. The Longzhong Basin, ∼1,900 km north of the collisional zone, provides a key test.

Molekulare Diagnostik, Therapie und Epidemiologie von Erregern viraler hämorrhagischer Fieber unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Lassa-Virus [PDF]

, 2011
Viral hemorrhagic fevers are a severe problem for public health systems especially in remote tropical areas. Lassa fever, caused by Lassa virus, is endemic in West-Africa. Several hundred thousand cases occur every year.
