This study examines how urban-dwelling Reunion free-tailed bats adapt to urbanisation, finding sex-dependent changes in stress, microbiome diversity, and pathogen shedding.

The paper develops a high-throughput serological method for detecting bat IgG antibodies against multiple human pathogens using microarray technology, demonstrating its applicability across diverse bat species.

This paper integrates expert range maps with species distribution models using stacked generalization to improve range delineation and account for uncertainty.

This study shows that bat antibodies change their antigen-binding properties with temperature, linking metabolic state to immune diversity and anti-inflammatory function.
