ABSTRACT Aim The increasing anthropogenic pressures on freshwater biodiversity raise the important question: how well is it represented within protected areas? We address this question using the freshwater fish fauna of a neotropical biodiversity hotspot to estimate (i) how the fish fauna is covered by the existing protected areas and (ii) to which ...

Next‐Generation Bio‐Reducible Lipids Enable Enhanced Vaccine Efficacy in Malaria and Primate Models
Structure–activity relationship (SAR) optimization of bio‐reducible ionizable lipids enables the development of highly effective lipid nanoparticle (LNP) mRNA vaccines. Lead LNPs show superior tolerability and antibody responses in rodents and primates, outperforming approved COVID‐19 vaccine lipids.
