New perspectives on the contribution of sanitary investments to mortality decline in English cities, 1845–1909

The Economic History Review, Volume 76, Issue 2, Page 624-660, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Health improved in English cities in the last third of the nineteenth century, in tandem with substantial increases in public spending on water supplies and sanitation. However, previous efforts to measure the contribution of public expenditures to mortality improvements have been hampered by difficulties in quantifying public health ...

Molecular Targets of Neurotoxic Insecticides in Apis mellifera

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 2022, Issue 21, June 7, 2022., 2022
Cloning of the honeybee genes encoding ion channels targeted by neurotoxic insecticides and their functional reconstitution in heterologous expression system allow the assessment of the different insecticide classes including pyrethroids and neonicotinoids. Elucidation of their mode of action, by combining electrophysiology and molecular docking, might

THE ZOONOTIC CITY: Urban Political Ecology and the Pandemic Imaginary

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 202-219, March 2022., 2022
Abstract In the context of the Covid‐19 pandemic this article takes a longer view of the evolving relationship between urbanization and the range of zoonotic diseases that have spread from animals to humans. I suggest that the existing interpretation of epidemiological transitions remains overly Eurocentric and requires a more nuanced conception of ...

Tick‐borne pathogens, including Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever virus, at livestock markets and slaughterhouses in western Kenya

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 2429-2445, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Vectors of emerging infectious diseases have expanded their distributional ranges in recent decades due to increased global travel, trade connectivity and climate change. Transboundary range shifts, arising from the continuous movement of humans and livestock across borders, are of particular disease control concern.
