Ecological factors shaping the ectoparasite community assembly of the Azara Grass Mouse, Akodon azarae (Rodentia: Cricetidae)

V. C. Colombo, M. Lareschi, L. D. Monje, L. R. Antoniazzi, S. Morand, P. M. Beldomenico

This study examines how environmental and host traits influence the ectoparasite community of Akodon azarae, finding that minimum temperature has the strongest impact.

3D printed scaffold combined to 2D osteoinductive coatings to repair a critical-size mandibular bone defect

M. BOUYER, C. GAROT, P. MACHILLOT, J. VOLLAIRE, V. FITZPATRICK, S. MORAND, J. BOUTONNAT, V. JOSSERAND, G. BETTEGA, C. PICART

This study shows that 3D printed PLA scaffolds with reduced BMP-2 doses can effectively repair critical-size mandibular bone defects in mini-pigs, comparable to autografts.

The accelerated infectious disease risk in the Anthropocene: more outbreaks and wider global spread

S. Morand, B. A. Walther

The paper shows that infectious disease outbreaks have increased in number, diversity, and global spread due to economic growth and mobility, with higher GDP countries being more central in disease networks.

Distinct spread of DNA and RNA viruses among mammals amid prominent role of domestic species

K. Wells, S. Morand, m. wardeh, M. Baylis

The paper analyzes mammal-virus networks to identify key species for virus spread, finding domestic mammals and primates central for DNA viruses, while carnivores and bats are central for RNA viruses.
