Adaptations in wing morphology rather than wingbeat kinematics enable flight in small hoverfly species

This study shows that small hoverflies compensate for reduced size by evolving larger and more aerodynamically effective wings, rather than changing their wingbeat kinematics.

cMPL-Based Purification and Depletion of Human Hematopoietic Stem Cells: Implications for Pre-Transplant Conditioning

This study explores using cMPL as a target to selectively deplete human hematopoietic stem cells, showing potential for safer pre-transplant conditioning.

A novel flight style allowing the smallest featherwing beetles to excel

This paper identifies a novel flight style in miniature featherwing beetles that enables high-speed flight despite their small size, offering insights for micro aerial vehicle design.

Activity of Plasmodium vivax promoter elements in Plasmodium knowlesi, and a centromere-containing plasmid that expresses NanoLuc throughout the parasite life cycle

This study tests the activity of Plasmodium vivax promoter elements and centromere-containing plasmids in Plasmodium knowlesi, showing functional promoters and stable plasmid expression across the parasite life cycle.
