Soil fungal networks maintain local dominance of ectomycorrhizal trees (2020)
Journal Article
Liang, M., Johnson, D., Burslem, D., Yu, S., Fang, M., Taylor, J., …Liu, X. (2020). Soil fungal networks maintain local dominance of ectomycorrhizal trees. Nature communications, 11(1), 2636. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-16507-y

The mechanisms regulating community composition and local dominance of trees in species-rich forests are poorly resolved, but the importance of interactions with soil microbes is increasingly acknowledged. Here, we show that tree seedlings that inter... Read More about Soil fungal networks maintain local dominance of ectomycorrhizal trees.

A global review of animal translocation programs (2020)
Journal Article
Resende, P., Viana–Junior, A., Young, R., & de Azevedo, C. (2020). A global review of animal translocation programs. Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 43(2), 221-232. https://doi.org/10.32800/abc.2020.43.0221

We performed a bibliometric analysis to investigate the efficiency of release techniques (soft and hard–release), to analyse the characteristics and outcomes of the translocation programs, to identify knowledge gaps, and to provide recommendations. A... Read More about A global review of animal translocation programs.

First-in-class candidate therapeutics that target mitochondria and effectively prevent cancer cell metastasis : mitoriboscins and TPP compounds (2020)
Journal Article
Ozsvari, B., Sotgia, F., & Lisanti, M. (2020). First-in-class candidate therapeutics that target mitochondria and effectively prevent cancer cell metastasis : mitoriboscins and TPP compounds. Aging, 12(11), 10162-10179. https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.103336

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been proposed to be responsible for tumor recurrence, distant metastasis and drug-resistance, in the vast majority of cancer patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new drugs that can target and eradicat...

A comparative study of optimal energy management strategies for energy storage with stochastic loads (2020)
Journal Article

This paper aims to present the significance of predicting stochastic loads to improve the performance of a low voltage (LV) network with an energy storage system (ESS) by employing several optimal energy controllers. Considering the highly stochastic... Read More about A comparative study of optimal energy management strategies for energy storage with stochastic loads.

A novel techno-economic multi-level optimization in home-microgrids with coalition formation capability (2020)
