Organ printing: Tissue spheroids as building blocks

Biomaterials, 2009
Organ printing can be defined as layer-by-layer additive robotic biofabrication of three-dimensional functional living macrotissues and organ constructs using tissue spheroids as building blocks. The microtissues and tissue spheroids are living materials

Continental‐wide prioritization of protected areas to address global and habitat‐specific goals for avian biodiversity conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The United Nations and European Union have set ambitious conservation goals to halt and reverse declines in biodiversity by protecting 30% of land and sea areas by 2030. Effective conservation planning requires evidence‐based spatial prioritization to maximize the coverage of species within designated protected areas.

Impact of global change on the distribution of mountain mammals and birds

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use changes are key drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many species are shifting to higher elevations or latitudes in response to global warming, often encountering unfavorable land‐use conditions during the shift. These changes can lead to reduced range size and increased extinction risks, particularly for mountain ...

Interplay between the human gut microbiome and host metabolism

Nature Communications, 2019
The human gut is inhabited by a complex and metabolically active microbial ecosystem. While many studies focused on the effect of individual microbial taxa on human health, their overall metabolic potential has been under-explored. Using whole-metagenome

Effectiveness of Organized Strategies to Enhance Access to Preventive Oral Cancer Screening Among High‐Risk Individuals in Brazil: A Randomized Clinical Trial in Primary Care

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 7, Page 1750-1758, 1 October 2026.
This randomized clinical trial evaluated the performance of organized risk‐based strategies to expand access to cancer preventive oral examination among vulnerable populations within the public health system of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Compared with an opportunistic approach, the organized invitation‐based oral cancer screening approaches systematically
