New paper by NRI scientists @chickpeaman, @framaha & colleagues describes innovative way to identify mosquito plant hosts from ingested nectar. It advances our understanding of vector-insect ecology – with key implications for tackling vector-borne diseases.
Check it out ⤵️
Our new paper is out “Identifying mosquito plant hosts from ingested nectar secondary metabolites.” We determine species-specific phytophagy in mosquitoes by detecting taxon-specific secondary metabolites in nectar. nature.com/articles/s41598-0… @KewScience @cntrouniv @NRInstitute

We further develop & use some of the new tools for Simulium surveillance & xenomonitoring to show an area of Nigeria that was thought to be free of onchocerciasis may in fact have active transmission; these tools need wider uptake doi.org/10.1186/s13071-024-0…

Very happy to share Monique's great paper on lethal and sublethal effects of ivermectin in Anopheles coluzzii mosquitoes, which advances how we consider dosing in humans to achieve vector control aims parasitesandvectors.biomedce…
Check out our research characterising the distribution, seasonality and ecology of Culex modestus in England: brill.com/view/journals/jemc…
Everyone put in lots of hard work, over many years, up and down the country, to get such comprehensive data on what could be a UK vector in future

Exciting news! Monique Shepherd-Gorringe, an @NRInstitute PhD student, has just had her 1st publication accepted! "Lethal and sublethal impacts of membrane-fed ivermectin are concentration-dependent in Anopheles coluzzii" Congratulations Monique! 🦟🌍

During my PhD, I got alot of unhelpful advice
Now I'm a PhD supervisor, I know 💯 what I needed to hear
