Advancing pharmacometrics in Africa—Transition from capacity development toward job creation
Abstract Trained pharmacometricians remain scarce in Africa due to limited training opportunities, lack of a pharmaceutical product development ecosystem, and emigration to high‐income countries. The Applied Pharmacometrics Training (APT) fellowship program was established to address these gaps and specifically foster job creation for talent retention.

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Differential Effect of Ivermectin on Intestinal Helminths in Multimmate Mouse (Mastomys natalensis)
Mastomys natalensis harbours gastrointestinal helminths of public health and food‐safety importance. This study identified five helminth taxa and assessed faecal egg counts after a single ivermectin dose. Egg counts declined substantially in treated rodents but changed little in controls over eight weeks.
