Incidence and risk factors for heat-related illness (heatstroke) in UK dogs under primary veterinary care in 2016 (2020)
Journal Article
Hall, E., Carter, A., & O’Neill, D. (2020). Incidence and risk factors for heat-related illness (heatstroke) in UK dogs under primary veterinary care in 2016. Scientific Reports, 10(1),

As climate change causes global temperatures to rise, heat-related illness, a potentially fatal condition in dogs, will become an ever-greater threat. This study aimed to report the incidence, fatality and canine risk factors of heat-related illness...

Designing antifilarial drug trials using clinical trial simulators (2020)
Journal Article
Walker, M., Hamley, J., Milton, P., Monnot, F., Pedrique, B., & Basáñez, M. (2020). Designing antifilarial drug trials using clinical trial simulators. Nature Communications, 11(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-16442-y

Lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis are neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) targeted for elimination by mass (antifilarial) drug administration. These drugs are predominantly active against the microfilarial progeny of adult worms. New drugs or co... Read More about Designing antifilarial drug trials using clinical trial simulators.
