Fluctuation of biomarkers is a novel way of studying system stability during stable and unstable states of health and disease, revealing the systems' ability to cope with external perturbations.
A systematic review with multilevel modelling quantified the positive association between human antibodies to Anopheles salivary proteins with Anopheles-human biting rate and epidemiological measures of malaria transmission, highlighting their potential as a tool to measure vector exposure and malaria transmission.
Molecular biosignatures that identify an inflammatory and potentially adverse reaction to vaccination have been defined in mice, a critical gatekeeper for progression of novel vaccine candidates into humans.

The reliance on food composition databases for the assessment of dietary intake is unreliable and results in a large bias when investigating the associations between diet and disease risk.
Analysis of proteomic data identified protein biomarkers of aging, mortality and aging-related diseases, supporting their use to monitor aging trajectories and identify individuals at higher risk of disease.
