The paper models how fragmented social networks affect the spread of social behaviors versus infectious diseases, finding that complex contagions are less hindered by subgroup structure than simple contagions.

This study investigates the evolutionary adaptation of helminth immunomodulators by analyzing the ARI family in different nematode species and their interactions with host IL-33 and heparan sulphate.

This study investigates how environmental factors affect vaccine responsiveness in wild and lab wood mice, finding diet and helminth infection significantly impact antibody production.

This study shows helminth infection increases susceptibility to gammaherpesvirus in wood mice, with anthelmintic treatment reducing viral infection and improved nutrition mitigating this effect.

The paper identifies exWAGO as an ancestral regulator of LTR retrotransposons, showing it binds sRNAs from TEs and non-autonomous LTRs in extracellular forms.

This study shows resource supplementation affects parasite infection dynamics and host behavior in wild wood mice, with mixed effects across 12 parasite taxa.

The paper shows density increases network connectedness in wild animal populations, but effects saturate, with stronger spatial than social impacts.

This paper develops an epigenetic clock for wild wood mice to estimate age and ageing rates, showing slower ageing in supplemented and parasite-treated individuals.

This study examines how manipulating food availability and parasite burden affects faecal corticosterone levels in wood mice, finding no direct impact but suggesting potential indirect effects.

This paper develops an epigenetic clock for wild wood mice using DNA methylation data to estimate age and study ageing rates in the wild.
