JHMRI Postdoctoral Fellow at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Neuroscientist interested in mosquito sensory systems and neuroethology 🇨🇴
Very excited to share our recent paper in @CurrentBiology where we study how human scent guides Anopheles gambiae thermotaxis and host selection in the semi-field!
Have you ever wondered how mosquitoes find you over long distances and why they bite you more than other people? Check out our recent work published in @CurrentBiology led by @dags263 & @stephrankin2 in collaboration with the Macha Research Trust, Zambia. https://t.co/cy66xEJFGP
The McMeniman group at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Baltimore, MD is actively recruiting a postdoctoral analytical chemist to study human scent chemistry using thermal desorption-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry methods.

This #WorldMosquitoDay, watch this by Dr. Sachie Kanatani from the @PhotiniSinnis17 Lab. It is terrifying and extraordinary at once. 5th-place winner in the 2021 #NikonSmallWorldInMotion competition. https://t.co/xZJ7mdEBnx Photo: Dr. Sachie Kanatani & Dr. Photini Sinnis
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

Why did a bunch of volunteers pipe their scents into a skating rink full of mosquitoes? To help @McMenimanLab learn the exact smells that mosquitoes prefer. Hear more on today’s @publichealthpod with @SDesmon and @JHMRImalaria’s Conor McMeniman.

.@JohnsHopkinsSPH continues to lead research on malaria, a global public health threat. Learn about their latest research on scents mosquitoes in Zambia are drawn to, which can help determine malaria prevention efforts, in the @NYTimes:
Great article by @nytimes@EmilyAnthes on @JHMRImalaria's @McMenimanLab's results from novel research creating enormous flight cage at Macha Research Trust (MRT), Zambia. Features MRT's administrative director, Chris Book too: link here https://t.co/C7F4EX8CDd @JohnsHopkinsSPH
