Some details on insect physiology-based research in my lab along with other interesting scientific topics.

If you haven't seen it yet, check out our latest study, where we compared the activity and sleep patterns of several Aedes albopictus strains from around the world. @nicoleewynne @KChandrasegaran @Lahondere_Lab @insectphysJBB @matajson @vtbiochem @FralinLifeSci @mariangelaboni3

My commentary on the closure of @VectorBase. Join me in rallying for its sustainable continuation. Comment, repost, and circulate. Let’s ensure this vital resource remains accessible for our global #VectorBiology research community.

@RC_Epi I’m just submitting my first of 5 and am regretting my life choices.

Contributions for @vectorgen @MattDeGennaro @matajson

This a major project of a former graduate/current postdoc Chris Holmes @FarFromHolmes

[Joshua B Benoit @insectphysJBB]

Haven’t been on here in a bit, but we have a new paper on how mosquitoes will use multiple blood feeding events to survive dry periods that can extend to drought.

Study has basic biology to modeling!

@Lahondere_Lab Congrats!!

[Clement Vinauger @thevinaugerlab]

And the companion study on Aedes aegypti led by @insectphysJBB and @matajson, featuring some work by @nicoleewynne is now available on @biorxivpreprint: https://t.co/2AmC0knwEW

[Clement Vinauger @thevinaugerlab]

New preprint in collaboration with @insectphysJBB's group, @Lahondere_Lab and @mariangelaboni3 . We compared the activity and sleep profiles of multiple strains of Aedes albopictus and found some differences influenced by their geographic origin. https://t.co/tROL3Bwznt

Fully annotated chr-scale genome for Culex quinquefasciatus @BMCBiology! Huge congrats to the entire team 🎉 Happy to be a small part of the massive effort.

@Vectorimmunlab No real excuse. Just take your own title and run a search on google scholar.

I’ve seen this happen a few times recently in the insect viviparity and nutrient provisioning area. Mainly, a spider paper gets reviewed by spider people and not by someone with right expertise

The Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Cincinnati will hire a tenure-track assistant professor in microbiology in 2024. Details and application link can be found at: https://t.co/GU4LRAo87v Search for 94790

The review of candidates starts in early January!

@kolapokehinde @EntsocAmerica @_SOVE_ @PSU_Entomology Yeah. Have seen it a few times. Females with undergo diuresis and males will drink the droplets.
