Metataxonomics reveal vultures as a reservoir for Clostridium perfringens
Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2017 The Old World vulture may carry and spread pathogens for emerging infections since they feed on the carcasses of dead animals and participate in the sky burials of humans, some of whom have died from communicable diseases.

, 2015 Vultures are never very far from death, never very far from the carcasses that they strip bare so cleanly and efficiently. Like all of Earth’s scavengers, they play a vital role in trans-forming waste and putrefaction into nourishment, creating a safer environment for so many other living things.

Electrically Readable Lateral Flow Assay Using Organic Transistors for Diagnostic Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Electrolyte‐gated organic field‐effect transistors (EGOFETs) are integrated with lateral flow (LF) paper fluidics to create a reusable, portable, and low‐cost point‐of‐care (PoC) diagnostic test. The devices are validated for Human Immunoglobulin G detection, achieving high sensitivity (0.1 fm), selectivity, and reproducibility with rapid results in 20–
