Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020 Although pangolins are considered to be one of the most trafficked wild mammals in the world, their conservation status remains uncertain through most of their ranges, and notably in western Africa.

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.Relatively little is known about the distribution or habitat requirements of Hong Kong's population of the Chinese pangolin. Between 2018 and 2021 we searched for pangolin burrows and deployed camera traps on the burrows. We then analyzed habitat suitability at multiple scales to determine the factors that are key in driving pangolin distributions in ...

Predicting RNA splicing from DNA sequence using Pangolin
Genome Biology, 2022 Recent progress in deep learning has greatly improved the prediction of RNA splicing from DNA sequence. Here, we present Pangolin, a deep learning model to predict splice site strength in multiple tissues.

Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection: Addressing strategies and future prospects
Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection significantly simplifies workflows, reduces cross‐contamination risks, and shortens turnaround times, making it highly suitable for point‐of‐care testing (POCT) and resource‐limited settings. Key challenges include system compatibility issues between Cas proteins and isothermal amplification, limited multiplexing

Evaluating methods for detecting and monitoring pangolin (Pholidata: Manidae) populations
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019 The behaviours, ecologies and morphologies of pangolins make them challenging to survey and monitor, and non-targeted wildlife surveys have not produced robust status assessments, especially where population densities are low because of overexploitation.

Conservation Science and Practice, 2021 Bushmeat consumption remains significant in urban Central Africa. Increasing urbanization has fueled bushmeat trade and become a threat to endangered species like the pangolin. Behavioral change interventions may help reduce demand for pangolins in urban

Nature CommunicationsWe recently detected a HKU4-related coronavirus in subgenus Merbecovirus (named pangolin-CoV-HKU4-P251T) from a Malayan pangolin1. Here we report isolation and characterization of pangolin-CoV-HKU4-P251T, the genome sequence of which is closest to that ...
