DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3736
Abstract: Plant productivity often increases with species richness, but the mechanisms explaining this diversity-productivity relationship are not fully understood. We tested whether plant-soil feedbacks (PSF) can help explain how biomass production changes with species richness. Using… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.952278
Abstract: The coronavirus pandemic has led to a wave of chronic disease cases; “Long COVID-19” is recognized as a new medical entity and resembles “fibromyalgia” which, likewise, lacks a clear mechanism. Observational studies indicate that up… read more here.
