Ecologic Traits Analysis for Identifying Rodent Hosts for Arenavirus and Hepacivirus in the Americas
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.Over half of emerging human pathogens originate from wildlife, with rodents serving as key zoonotic hosts. This study used ecological trait‐based models to identify rodent traits associated with arenavirus and hepacivirus infections and detect potential host species across the Americas, our models achieve high predictive accuracy (AUC = 0.92–0.96).

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.Abstract Alternative protein interventions are common in conservation. They aim to reduce the hunting or consumption of wildlife by promoting substitutes. However, selecting suitable meat substitutes is challenging because many factors drive wild meat consumption. Palatability, one such factor, drives consumer food preference and is potentially crucial

Vidas experimentais: humanos e roedores no laboratório [PDF]
Etnografica, 2013 O renovado interesse despertado pelo estudo das relações entre humanos e animais na antropologia envolve uma consideração sobre os modos como a vida e a morte de vários organismos vivos estão ligadas aos mundos sociais humanos, ou seja, o mundo comum é visto como um campo de relações mais amplo, povoado por uma miríade de seres com os quais os humanos ...

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 401-411, August 2025.Background – Itch is a common symptom in skin disorders. While the neural pathways of itch transmission from the skin to the brain are well‐understood in rodents, the same pathways in dogs remain unclear. The knowledge gap hinders the development of effective treatments for canine itch‐related disorders.

Population Estimate and Spatial Distribution of Capybaras in Lake Paranoá, Brasília, Brazil
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 3, May 2025.Understanding the dynamics of capybara populations living in urban environments is relevant, especially given the conflicts observed between the species and humans in these environments. Here, we investigated the hypothesis of overpopulation of the capybara in Lago Paranoá, a lake in a large neotropical city, Brasília, Brazil.
