Article Synopsis
- The European flat oyster's population has drastically declined due to two parasites, leading to stock collapse and loss of natural beds.
- Research has focused on understanding immune responses to these parasites and developing genetic programs to enhance parasite resistance.
- A newly completed chromosome-level genome assembly provides insights into the oyster's genetic makeup and is crucial for ongoing studies in breeding, aquaculture, and restoration of natural habitats.
Host-microbe interactions play crucial roles in marine ecosystems. However, we still have very little understanding of the mechanisms that govern these relationships, the evolutionary processes that shape them, and their ecological consequences. The holobiont concept is a renewed paradigm in biology that can help to describe and understand these complex systems.

- Community pharmacists (CPs) have historically had limited access to patients' eGFR, but recent improvements in electronic health records are increasing their access to this critical information.
- A study involving 70 CPs over six months found that they were able to identify 99 drug-related problems (DRPs) in elderly patients with renal impairment, compared to 184 identified by expert pharmacists.
- The findings indicate that while CPs can effectively detect DRPs, expert pharmacists are more successful, highlighting the need for improved training and support for CPs in managing complex medication issues for this patient population.
Background: hospital discharge is a critical event for older patients. The French guidelines recommended the swift transmission of a discharge summary to the general practitioner (GP) and a primary care consultation within 7 days. The relevance and feasibility of these guidelines have not previously been assessed.

Anatomical adaptations such as the establishment of specialized cells or organs have been evidenced in numerous deep-sea invertebrates. However, very few studies detailed global inter-dependencies between host and symbionts in these ecosystems.
