In August 2025, pharmaverse/aNCA delivered a focused set of stability, modularity, and capability improvements. Release discipline was strengthened via package version bumps across multiple commits to align release versions. UX and clarity were improved by renaming visualization to Exploration and aligning function names to explore, and by label/document updates. Modularity and maintainability advanced with a new parameter plots module and relocation of boxplots to NCA results. The detect_study_types workflow was enhanced with tests, improved inputs/outputs, IV bolus/Infusion distinction, and metadata/document updates. Support for tau mapping was added as an optional feature. Multiple lint and quality improvements were completed, and the user guide was updated to reflect changes.
