I have a fully funded DZIF PhD project in my lab looking at the impacts of the insecticide resistance phenotype on Anopheles biology and any associated impacts on vector competence starting in summer (negotiable). Message with any questions. my-hbigs.uni-heidelberg.de/site/index.php… Please RT!

#LSTM & London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine led study in Current Biology provides the first concrete evidence for the presence of Wolbachia bacteria in wild Anopheles mosquito populations bit.ly/3g8NHQy #malaria

Our latest on native Wolbachia infections in Anopheles is out now in Current Biology. "Stable high-density and maternally inherited Wolbachia infections in Anopheles moucheti and Anopheles demeilloni mosquitoes" sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Papers out - Inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces and in solution with Virusend (TX-10), a novel disinfectant. Work done with Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 and Virusend UK 👏 Enyia Anderson Ian Patterson - first "first" & "last" author pubs, respectively. Microbiology Society microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…

Check out our latest Microbiome paper on the microbiome and vectorial capacity 🦟🦠 Nice work Cintia Cansado-Utrilla Serena Philip J McCall Kerri Coon microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Great postdoc opportunity👇Join the oldest institution dedicated to tropical medicine LSTM with arguably the largest vector biology department LSTM Vector Biology in the world. Wonderful colleagues, great mentor, and exciting project on CRISPR-mediated gene drives. Please share 🙂

New Wolbachia paper! But not in insects- this time in nematodes. We look at how Wolbachia depletion blocks 🪱 development in the vector, and potential reasons why: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Amy Marriott Kelly Johnston Louise Ford John Archer

A new role for anti-Wolbachia therapy of lymphatic filariasis – blocking the transmission of the parasite through mosquitoes. As published in PNASNews by #LSTM researchers bit.ly/3K9Vb1P #ntds

Research published in Microbiome provides the first evidence of successful microbiome transplantation in mosquitoes. Read the research: bit.ly/3vwczYy

What's going on with Wolbachia in Anopheles? More on this puzzle from Shannon Quek hot off the press @micgenomics microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa… with a deep dive into metabolic pathways and other cool features under the Wolbachia-genome-hood!

#LSTM researchers complete analysis of Wolbachia bacterial endosymbiont strains that infect Anopheles mosquitoes - as published in @micgenomics bit.ly/3v4n864

Finally online! A project started by Rhiannon A. E. Logan at LSTM Vector Biology and finished with students working with me at Brock FMS with lots of help in between Some highlights: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very inspiring to be here at the ICTMM at Bangkok! Excited to hear about the variety of subjects science is tackling Vs Tropical Diseases #ICTMM2020 #ICTMM2022 LSTM (Forgot I had Twitter, more pics to come)

Amazingly varied research on display during the poster sessions! Helminthes, antimicrobial resistance, virology, malaria, vector control, something to suit anyone #ictmm2020
