Latest projects
I'm currently working on studies that relate to the fitness consequences of nutrition, feeding behavior, and immune-challenges in mosquito vectors. I am also involved in artificial diet development for rearing Anopheles and Aedes mosquitoes.
Periodic blog posts on the life scientific can be found on the Read group website.
Synopsis articles
I write research synopses written for the Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics webpage.
