🎓 16/05/2025 I crossed the finish line. 4.5 years of science, sweat, setbacks, and small victories. Laughter, tears, anxiety, and growth — all part of the path. Today, I become: Dr. Ellen Caroline Nobre Santos With heart, truth, and resilience. #PhDLife #WomenInSTEM #BrazilianScience #Science🧪

🚨 Oropouche virus (OROV) is spreading in Brazil! In our study, we assessed Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus as vectors. 🦟 Both species were refractory to oral infection, suggesting natural transmission is unlikely. 📄 Full study: www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/17... #OROV #Arbovirus

🚨 Dengue is rising in Brazil! We analyzed 5 Aedes aegypti populations 🇧🇷 infected with DENV-1. 🦟 High infection rates, but transmission varies. ➡️ Local control strategies are key! 📄 Full study: www.mdpi.com/2414-6366/10... #Dengue #AedesAegypti #PublicHealth
