Impact of tissue staining and scanner variation on the performance of pathology foundation models: a study of sarcomas and their mimics [PDF]

The Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Histopathological analysis is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis and prognostication of cancer. Recent advances in AI, driven by large‐scale digitisation and pan‐cancer foundation models, are opening new opportunities for clinical integration.

Nematopsis Schneider, 1892 in Nerite Gastropods From Saint Kitts, With a Phylogenetic Study of the Genus, and Placement Within the Phylum Apicomplexa Levine, 1970 [PDF]

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT The Apicomplexa are obligate unicellular parasites found in terrestrial and aquatic environments. Nematopsis are found infecting marine invertebrates in a life cycle involving mollusks and crustaceans. In the present study, mantle and muscle tissues from nerite gastropods were microscopically examined for Nematopsis using wet mounts and ...

Individual differences in activity and habitat selection of juvenile queen conch evaluated using acceleration biologgers

Endangered Species Research, 2015
Fine-scale differences in behaviour and habitat use have important ecological implications, but have rarely been examined in marine gastropods. We used tri-axial accelerometer loggers to estimate activity levels and movement patterns of the juvenile ...
