Researchers have identified key antibodies that can protect against severe forms of malaria, providing hope for the development of an effective vaccine. The study's findings, published in Cell Host & Microbe, show promise for new approaches to combatting the disease.
A new study tracks over 70 flatbacks off north-west Australia's coastline using satellites, revealing a 1,000km-long migratory corridor within the Commonwealth Marine Reserve network. The research also identifies common migration routes among whales, sharks, and turtles.
A species of cold water plankton in the North Atlantic is declining as oceans warm, putting pressure on fisheries that rely on it. The study found no evidence of adaptation to warmer temperatures over 50 years, suggesting its range will continue to contract and eventually disappear.
