So cool… congrats Leah and team!

Mosquito Cell Atlas: A single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of the adult Aedes aegypti mosquito https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.25.639765v1

globally, there are ~3500 described mosquito species in the Culicidae family and many of these are important vectors of disease but only a small percentage have genomic resources. we are launching a pilot project to generate high quality reference genomes for 100 important mosquito species [1/3]

I created a starter pack highlighting Women in the field of Disease Vector Biology and Ecology: go.bsky.app/E7wuQus Please share and let me know if you’d like to be added! 🦟🦠🪰

Mosquitoes: the photo gallery. I feel better about posting this in the off-season, for some reason (*scratches*)

Congratulations to newly- minted UBC Zoology PhD graduate Dr. Jarrett Blair!

Sharing my new paper again since moving from the other place 🙂 We shed light on some of the most rapidly evolving animal behaviors—those surrounding mating.

Exciting for this to finally be online! Was a privilege to be part of such a great international team. Excellent phylogenetic comparative work by @genmorinaga.bsky.social to cap it all off!

Had a great time hosting @benmatthewslab.bsky.social at UCVM! A great seminar and excellent conversations. Thanks for helping us launch our new Comparative Biology and Animal Health seminar series!
