Low dose vaccination with attenuated Francisella tularensis strain SchuS4 mutants protects against tularemia independent of the route of vaccination. [PDF]
Tularemia, caused by the gram-negative bacterium Francisella tularensis, is a severe, sometimes fatal disease. Interest in tularemia has increased over the last decade due to its history as a biological weapon.

Epidemiological Situation on Tularemia in the far Eastern Federal District (2000-2017)
Relevance Tularemia - natural focal zoonotic infection occupies an important place in the structure of human infectious pathology. The incidence is associated with natural foci, where there are favorable conditions for the existence of the pathogen, its ...

New to town: home range size, habitat selection and behavioral adaptations by urban hares
European hares Lepus europaeus have recently been shown to colonize urban areas in different parts of Europe. This appears to be a novel phenomenon, and little is known about the space use and behavioral adaptations of hares living in urban areas. Here, we describe the first findings concerning home range sizes from GPS‐collared hares (n = 3) in Aarhus

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Large Language Models as Health Information Tools: Patient Use and Trust in Otolaryngology
ABSTRACT Objectives Patients increasingly use large language models (LLMs) for health information, yet their use patterns, perceptions, and impact on clinical communication in otolaryngology remain poorly characterized. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional survey of adult patients at an academic otolaryngology clinic. The survey assessed demographics,

Hybrid physics and deep‐learning enabled design methods identified miniprotein binders to Flpp3 (Francisella‐like lipoprotein), a key virulence factor from Francisella tularensis. Multiple candidates with nanomolar to picomolar binding affinities were obtained using yeast surface display screening and further experimental optimization.
