Helminths as architects of trained tolerance: implications for human health

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 3, 2026.
Abstract Helminths infect nearly 2 billion people worldwide and are a major cause of chronic morbidity in low‐resource regions. Unlike bacterial and viral pathogens that elicit protective memory, helminths actively remodel host immunity to enable their years‐long persistence and reinfection.

Applying Environmental DNA Metabarcoding to Calculate an Index of Biotic Integrity for Freshwater Fish

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
We used eDNA metabarcoding to calculate a fish‐based IBI and compared our eDNA‐IBI to a previously implemented fish‐IBI for the Tennessee River basin in northern Alabama. We found significant, positive relationships between the eDNA‐IBI and fish‐IBI, but we discuss how future directions may improve eDNA‐IBIs.

Preventing the next invasion: Lessons from aquaculture for the safe expansion of insect farming

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
We argue that preemptive risk assessments, species screening and transferable, adaptive regulatory frameworks developed for aquaculture offer a critical foundation for safeguarding against insect#x02010;driven invasions. Proactive governance that embeds these safeguards before large#x02010;scale expansion offers a rare opportunity to prevent invasion ...

Have the environmental benefits of insect farming been overstated? A critical review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-194, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Insect farming is frequently promoted as a sustainable food solution, yet current evidence challenges many environmental benefits claimed by industry proponents. This review critically examines the scientific foundation for assessing the environmental impacts of insect farming in both human food and animal feed applications.

Impact of noise on the behaviour and biochemical parameters of the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus and Cherax destructor

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 328, Issue 2, Page 146-164, February 2026.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of acoustic stimulus on the behavioural and biochemical responses of two species of crayfish, Cherax destructor and Cherax quadricarinatus. Our results showed that exposure to noise significantly affects in both species motility parameters, agonistic interactions and acoustic signals emitted. In terms of
