Aridity mediates the above‐ and below‐ground biodiversity–ecosystem stability relationship

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding the macroecological drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem stability, i.e. the ability of an ecosystem to maintain its structure and function, is crucial to inform how ecosystems can be managed and conserved effectively. Here, we conducted a field survey of plant and soil biota (bacteria, fungi, and nematodes) and estimated the temporal ...

Bridging the Gap Between Human Toxicology and Ecotoxicology Under One Health Perspective by a Cross‐Species Adverse Outcome Pathway Network for Reproductive Toxicity

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Cross‐species extrapolation of adverse outcome pathway network on reproductive toxicity under the One Health perspective using new approach methodologies. AOP = adverse outcome pathway. Abstract Although ecotoxicological and toxicological risk assessments are performed separately from each other, recent efforts have been made in both disciplines to ...

Autonomous Nanomedicine: Closing the Biological Validation Gap

Exploration, EarlyView.
Delivery of nanoparticles to tumors has not improved in over fifteen years, and biological testing remains slow and separate from formulation design. This review proposes adding a Biology step to the design cycle, using organ chips and patient‐derived organoids, and assesses the readiness of each required technology.
