Emerging trends in 'smart probiotics' : functional consideration for the development of novel health and industrial applications [PDF]
, 2017 The link between gut microbiota and human health is well-recognized and described. This ultimate impact on the host has contributed to explain the mutual dependence between humans and their gut bacteria.

Multispecies Cohabitation and Future Design
Proceedings of DRS, 2020 How should humans live with animals and other forms of life? Could responses to this question improve the health and wellbeing of the biosphere? This paper argues that design researchers ought to engage nonhuman lifeforms as collaborators: informants and co-designers, or clients and users.

Grassland carbon sequestration and emissions following cultivation in a mixed crop rotation [PDF]
, 2012 Grasslands are potential carbon sinks to reduce unprecedented increase in atmospheric CO2. Effect of age (1 to 4-yr-old) and management (slurry, grazing multispecies mixture) of a grass phase mixed crop rotation on carbon sequestration and emissions upon

Designing for Multispecies Collaboration and Cohabitation [PDF]
Companion Publication of the 2019 Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work and Social Computing, 2019 Human-nature interaction, joining the agendas of sustainable interaction design and nonanthropocentric HCI, takes up the challenges presented by climate change and environmental crisis. My dissertation focuses on studying sustainable farming practices through posthuman concepts to experiment ways of supporting multispecies collaborative works ...

Multispecies site occupancy modeling and study design for spatially replicated environmental DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 AbstractEnvironmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has become widely applied to gauge biodiversity in a noninvasive and cost-efficient manner. The detection of species using eDNA metabarcoding is, however, imperfect owing to various factors that can cause false negatives in the inherent multi-stage workflow.Imperfect detection in the multi-stage workflow ...
