New paper out from my time @lshtm on personal protection tools against Aedes-borne diseases. Some interesting findings of dUDL and economic modelling on repellents.

For #WorldMosquitoDay2024, let’s raise awareness about #malaria !

Stay tuned throughout the day for more information on how Transmission Zero is utilizing Gene Drive technology to help stop malaria transmission.

[transmissionzero @transm0]

Curious about how Transmission Zero are working to help the fight against malaria?

We are developing new tools to stop malaria transmission by modifying mosquitoes so that they can no longer transmit the disease.

Really shocked by @British_Airways lack of staff at bag drop off desks at Berlin Airport. Might as well have flown with a budget airline rather than the national carrier. We've all been in a queue for an hour.

[Scott Tytheridge 🦟🏳️‍🌈 (He/Him) @bugboyST]

A lot of work pays off. Really glad to have worked on this project and look forward to our upcoming works.

Happy to share our work on octopamine's role in modulating malaria mosquito audition in the swarm to facilitate partner detection! Octopamine signalling in the mosquito ear can be targeted by currently available insecticides🧵1/n https://t.co/gXqh6slb2G

@ToastedTapioca @ToastedTapioca David! That's excellent. Thank you so much for tweeting me - it's really encouraging to do future talks knowing it helps others in their career decisions or just shows them another area of interest!

Rising temperatures are expected to bring vector-borne diseases like malaria and dengue fever to new regions. This #BiologyLetters study by @wormmaps suggests that climate change may have helped malaria reach new populations https://t.co/a46JhfC4Yn
