Few studies have focused on the gendered differences amongst Polish migrants in their use of alcohol or access to treatment services. This study explored the divergent pathways through alcohol use, misuse and treatment access in a group of Polish migrants in London. Using an intersectionality framework we examine the ways that social attitudes toward gender in both communities and access to services related to migrant status and class are experienced. With a view to informing treatment services we discuss how a better understanding of these pathways, and the factors likely to influence them, can be used to address challenges experienced by Polish migrant women with problematic alcohol use.

In migratory passerines, the prevalence and parasitaemia of blood parasites often increase towards the end of the breeding season. Consequently, post-breeding migration to winter quarters can be seen as a strategy to avoid the rising pathogen pressure during this time (migratory escape). I studied haemoparasite infections in sedge warblers (Acrocephalus schoenobaenus) inhabiting natural wetlands in southern Poland, examining the same individuals just after their arrival from wintering grounds, and again during incubation or nestling feeding.

Hybridization is a common phenomenon in birds, particularly between closely related species, when reproductive isolation mechanisms are insufficiently developed. Hybrids differ from the parental species in genetic, morphological, and behavioural traits. However, the migration patterns of hybrids have been scarcely studied.
