The EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 : opportunities and challenges on the path towards biodiversity recovery (2021)
Journal Article

The European Union (EU) has committed to an ambitious biodiversity recovery plan in its Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the Green Deal. These policies aim to halt biodiversity loss and move towards sustainable development, focusing on restoring de...

Parasitology and One Health — perspectives on Africa and beyond (2021)
Journal Article
Lorusso, V. (2021). Parasitology and One Health — perspectives on Africa and beyond. Pathogens, 10(11), e1437. https://doi.org/10.3390/pathogens10111437

This concept paper reviews issues pertaining to parasitic and vector-borne infections, of humans, animals, or both, of topical relevance to the African continent as well as to neighbouring and interconnected geographies. This analysis is carried out... Read More about Parasitology and One Health — perspectives on Africa and beyond.

Uncertainty regarding species delimitation, geographic distribution, and the evolutionary history of south-central Amazonian titi monkey species (Plecturocebus, Pitheciidae) (2021)
Journal Article

Platyrrhine primate taxonomy is a rapidly evolving area of research. The recent description of the Parecis titi monkey, Plecturocebus parecis, has raised substantial questions regarding the taxonomy, distribution, and evolutionary history of titi tax...

The effective creation of social value in infrastructure delivery (2021)
Journal Article
Watts, G., Higham, A., & Abowen-Dake, R. (2021). The effective creation of social value in infrastructure delivery. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 175(4), 167-174. https://doi.org/10.1680/jensu.21.00052

The need to create social value during the delivery of infrastructure projects is growing in importance. However, it can be argued that the initial expectations of stakeholders at the outset of projects are not being achieved once the project is deli...

Influenced by nano-drug delivery applications, the present article considers the collective
effects of hybrid biocompatible metallic nanoparticles (Silver and Copper), a stenosis and an aneurysm on
the unsteady blood flow characteristics in a cathe... Read More about Computational simulation of rheological blood flow containing hybrid nanoparticles in an inclined catheterized artery with stenotic, aneurysmal and slip effects.

COP26: here's how much progress the UK has made on three key net zero pledges (2021)
Other
Fly, A., Wilson, G., & Jankovic, L. (2021). COP26: here's how much progress the UK has made on three key net zero pledges. London

The UK is hosting the 26th annual UN climate summit in Glasgow. Boris Johnson’s government boasts of having the most ambitious climate change targets in the world.

But how is the country’s progress to net zero emissions by 2050 going? We asked thr... Read More about COP26: here's how much progress the UK has made on three key net zero pledges.
