Team from LSTM and @fiocruz_en finds that spraying just 12% of a room with insecticide kills 85% of #AedesAegypti mosquitoes present - a cheaper & easier way to treat homes @pamcafrica @philipmccall11 lstmed.ac.uk/news-events/new…

As promised...links for the two postdoc positions @LSTMnews BMGF funded project - Wolbachia in Anopheles tinyurl.com/pcc64bam BBSRC funded project - Wolbachia in Culex. tinyurl.com/5ac26dz9 Check em out, please share, and perfect timing to chat to me at #Wolbachia2023
Replying to @mosquitomicrobe
A quick FYI. If you’re interested to work on these topics the lab will soon be advertising two postdocs. One on Wolbachia and Anopheles, the other on Wolbachia control in Culex. Stay tuned for the link! Email or come and chat to me at the Wolbachia conference in Crete.
