Public awareness and knowledge of blood donation eligibility and deferral criteria: Fostering a culture of donation and advancing equity

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In Canada, blood operators permanently defer individuals with a history of malaria to prevent transfusion‐transmitted malaria. While protective, this policy raises equity concerns, particularly for individuals requiring frequent transfusions, including those living with sickle cell disease.

Public perspectives on potential changes to malaria deferral criteria in Canada

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives As blood collection agencies (BCAs) seek to increase donor diversity, making changes to eligibility criteria to enable more people to donate is an important consideration. BCAs in Canada have a permanent deferral from whole blood and platelet donation for anyone with a history of malaria, a barrier to donation for ...

Impaired Motor Function in a Zebrafish Stathmin‐2 Knockout Model

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Stathmin‐2 (STMN2) is a microtubule‐associated protein that plays a role in the stability of microtubules in axons of the nervous system of animals. In this study, we generated a novel zebrafish STMN2 knockout (KO) model. STMN2 is represented by two genes in the zebrafish genome: stmn2a and stmn2b.

Comparison of Consumer Smartwatch and Research‐Grade Accelerometer‐Derived Step Counts in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 580-589, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Objective, scalable measures of function are needed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Research‐grade accelerometers are promising but may be difficult to deploy for prolonged remote monitoring, whereas consumer smartwatches offer a practical alternative. We evaluated the feasibility of long‐term smartwatch monitoring in
