Published in 2019 at "Environmental Science and Pollution Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-019-07275-4

Abstract: Mercury is a trace element that is potentially dangerous due its high toxicity and tendency to bioaccumulate in organisms. Currently, high mercury concentrations are seen in the environment especially due climate changes. Studies regarding mercury… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Environmental pollution"

DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2018.08.042

Abstract: Millimetre-sized fragments have been documented in many fish species, but their transfer through food webs is still poorly understood. Here we quantified and described plastic fragments in the digestive tracts of 43 Easter Island flying… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-73283-x

Abstract: On Conch Reef, Florida Keys, USA we examined the effects of reef hydrography and topography on the patterns of stable isotope values (δ18O and δ13C) in the benthic green alga, Halimeda tuna. During the summer,… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Briefings in Bioinformatics"

DOI: 10.1093/bib/bbae359

Abstract: Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are important for many biological processes, but predicting them from sequence data remains challenging. Existing deep learning models often cannot generalize to proteins not present in the training set, and do not… read more here.
