De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

ABSTRACT Malaria remains a major global health challenge, with an urgent need for new therapies to combat the evolving resistance to anti‐malarial treatments. Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling offers a promising approach to accurately predict PK, optimize dosing strategies, reduce development time and cost, and de‐risk the ...

Searching for the beasts in the archive as methodological praxis
This article offers searching for the beasts in the archive as a methodological tool available to researchers invested in both anticolonialism and antianthropocentrism. By focusing on three basic units of reference—categories, histories, and borders—the article shows how searching for the beasts unsettles some taken‐for‐granted assumptions that ...

Improving Malaria Parasite Gene Flow Inference Under Sparse Spatial Sampling
ABSTRACT Estimating malaria parasite migration is crucial for informing elimination strategies, particularly by identifying regions with higher parasite migration that may serve as transmission sources and intervention targets. Methods that infer spatial variations in gene flow from georeferenced genetic data, including Estimated Effective Migration ...

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

ABSTRACT Malaria remains a significant global health burden, particularly among pediatric populations in endemic regions. Recent advances in preventive interventions highlight the complementary roles of vaccines and long‐acting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in reducing infection risk.

Eco‐Evolutionary Dynamics of Pathogen Epidemic Timing in a Seasonal Environment
How are seasonal patterns of pathogen epidemics shaped by evolution? Using numerical and analytical approaches, we investigate the evolution of pathogen seasonal preferences. Our analysis identifies two selective forces driving the diversification of pathogen seasonality: seasonal priority effect and stabilising selection.

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

ABSTRACT Background Owl monkeys (Aotus spp.) are a nocturnal nonhuman primate (NHP) native to central and South America that are used as infectious disease research models for human diseases, such as malaria and human immunodeficiency virus. Natural and infectious diseases may cause alterations in the hematology and serum biochemistry values, which ...
