The paper documents predation on mouse lemurs in Madagascar using radio-telemetry and owl pellet analysis, revealing new predator species and highlighting the underestimation of snake predation on these primates.

The paper uses machine learning to screen museum tissues for novel coronaviruses and paramyxoviruses, recovering sequences from archived samples and identifying new host species.

The paper investigates how habitat degradation affects hantavirus infection in small mammals in Madagascar, finding higher prevalence in agricultural areas due to increased Rattus rattus abundance and smaller body size.

The paper studies the evolutionary history and genetic structure of an urban-dwelling bat species on Reunion Island, finding no spatial genetic structure and suggesting in-situ diversification and ancient population expansion.
