Traditional surveillance of #malaria transmission relies upon direct capture of infected mosquitoes.
Our @PNASNews paper shows geospatial modelling of human antibodies against mosquito saliva 💦🦟 and malaria parasites 🦠 is a feasible novel alternative -> https://t.co/Te86xNvNi4

Tada! Graduating with my PhD today was the cherry on top of 2023! Couldn't have done it without my wonderful supervisory team @FreyaFowkes @Paulaagius2 @JulieASimpson50 Katherine O'Flaherty + Victor Chaumeau @BurnetInstitute @UniMelbMDHS

@drleighannjones @FreyaFowkes @JulieASimpson50 @Paulaagius2 @BurnetMalaria @unimelbMSPGH @acreme2030 Thanks Leigh! We actually don't have vivas in Aus but am hoping to get my examiners' comments back in the next month or so!

I've been too busy enjoying my holidays and celebrating to mention that I submitted my thesis last month #PhDone 🥳🥳🥳 Special thanks to my wonderful supervisors @FreyaFowkes @JulieASimpson50 @Paulaagius2 @BurnetMalaria @unimelbMSPGH @acreme2030

Today I presented my PhD Completion Seminar at @unimelbMSPGH! Feeling very lucky to be supervised and mentored by some incredible people @FreyaFowkes @JulieASimpson50 @Paulaagius2 @BurnetMalaria @acreme2030

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

Thanks for having us @ictmm2020! It's been a wonderful conference and a lot of fun! @BurnetMalaria @acreme2030

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

@Paula_Moraga_ @CRCPress Hi Paula, I have recently been trying to learn R-INLA and have been finding your book incredibly helpful! I just wanted to flag that Chapter 10 currently isn't loading - is there anyway to fix that? Many thanks

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

Congratulations @MerrynRoe on a fantastic first first-author paper!

[Merryn Roe @MerrynRoe]

Can malaria parasites be spontaneously cleared? Let me tell you all about it in my first first author paper out today!

Proud to share my first first-author publication in @eLife 🥳 Our systematic review with multilevel modelling shows that Anopheles salivary antibodies can be used as a biomarker of human biting rate @FreyaFowkes @julia_cutts @JulieASimpson50 @Paulaagius2

Thanks to @JITMM for the opportunity to present on using Anopheles salivary antigens as an outcome measure in a trial of personal repellent, alongside some wonderful women in Malaria including @MerrynRoe @womeninmalaria @BurnetMalaria

[Merryn Roe @MerrynRoe]

Very excited to be presenting about immune mediated spontaneous clearance of #malaria in the same session as @ea_kearney at #JITMMVirtual2021 in a few minutes! Tune into Room D now to catch us @JITMM

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

It's @pintofscienceAU week! My PhD research at @BurnetInstitute explores using Anopheles-specific salivary antigens as a serosurveillance tool for vector and malaria exposure. #TBT when I ran ELISAs on 14000 samples in 4 days #ThisIsMyScience #ThisIsMyField #OurBody #PlanetEarth

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

I marched yesterday at the @march4justiceau to be heard, and this is the response from the top. You are complicit in your silence and the silencing of women's voices. Shame. #March4Justice #auspol

If this were all a work of fiction, you could not script a greater entrance for the archvillain than this. #March4Justice #auspol

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

Congrats @MerrynRoe! Well deserved and what an excellent opportunity!!

[Merryn Roe @MerrynRoe]

So grateful to have co-won the best student 10 minute talk @The_VIIN with Marina Zupan! Looking forward to presenting at Lorne in 2021! #VIIN2020

[Dr Ellen Kearney @ea_kearney]

Feel very lucky to work alongside such inspiring and intelligent women

[Dr Julia Cutts @julia_cutts]

Amazing to work in such a dynamic, cross-border team. Truly greater than the sum of our parts, as all great teams are!

[Freya Fowkes @FreyaFowkes]

Well done @apphyo @ea_kearney @MerrynRoe from @BurnetInstitute presenting your important data from Myanmar and the GMS #MAM2020 @acreme2030
