How Host Phylogeny, Diet, and Habitat Affect Gut Microbial Diversity in Wild Snakes
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.Gut microbiota plays critical roles in host digestion, immune regulation, neurochemical signaling, and metabolic homeostasis. Based on wild snakes (73 individuals from 23 species) from China, we explored the composition, characteristics, and functions of gut microbes across different groups using fecal metagenomic samples; further we explored the ...

Sexual and reproductive health and rights in anticipatory action for disasters
Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.Abstract An examination of the incorporation of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in anticipatory action (AA) reveals the latter's potential to strengthen disaster response by addressing pre‐existing inequalities and marginalised needs.

Research Direction and Science Evaluation: The Role of Coherence and Alignment
Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 437-474, Fall 2026.ABSTRACT The decisions of funding agencies greatly influence the direction of scientific research; however, our understanding of how applicants' research directions affect the selection process remains limited. In this study, we investigate how a project's coherence with a scientist's previous work and its alignment with current scientific trends ...

Pathogens that Cause Illness Clinically Indistinguishable from Lassa Fever, Nigeria, 2018
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2022 During the 2018 Lassa fever outbreak in Nigeria, samples from patients with suspected Lassa fever but negative Lassa virus PCR results were processed through custom gene expression array cards and metagenomic sequencing.
