Helminths are parasitic worms that secrete a plethora of immune regulatory molecules which allow them to moderate inflammatory responses by their host's immune system to ensure their survival withi...

Robust species richness estimates are critical for meaningful conservation prioritisation, understanding ecosystem resilience, and studying evolutionary processes. Yet, they remain elusive even for...

Kidney transplantation is usually the optimal treatment option for patients living with kidney failure given its associations with improved survival, quality of life outcomes and a reduction in the...

Accurately resolving evolutionary relationships among organisms is a cornerstone of evolutionary biology, with phylogenetic trees serving as critical tools for this purpose. While single-gene phylo...

The paper treats the financial market as a communication system, using four information-theoretic assumptions to derive an idealized model with only one parameter. State variables are scalar statio...

Feral deer are associated with a range of environmental impacts including overgrazing and trampling of native vegetation, increased insolation, ringbarking, creation of wallows, erosion and stream ...

Continuous-time affine mortality models are useful in the analysis of age-cohort mortality rates as they yield a closed-form expression for survival curves, which are consistent with the dynamics o...

Increasingly invasive Streptococcus pyogenes disease has been linked to the emergence of the M1UK lineage. Here, we used a murine infection model to investigate the ability of M1UK to accumulate mu...

Targeting anion transporters to specific organelles has previously been shown to be an effective strategy to enhance their cytotoxicities against cancerous cell lines. In this work a new family of ...

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular eukaryotic parasite in the phylum Apicomplexa. Reversible, conditional control of gene transcription was achieved previously in this organism using a tet-off s...
