This study shows that Aedes aegypti is invading rural areas in the Peruvian Amazon, with entomological risk levels comparable to dengue-endemic cities, posing a public health threat.

This paper develops a hybrid capture sequencing platform for tick-borne disease detection, identifying emerging pathogens and ecological transmission networks in New York.

This study shows that the sex peptide receptor (SPR) is not required for post-mating behavioral changes in Aedes aegypti, suggesting alternative pathways mediate these responses.

The paper catalogs sperm and seminal fluid proteins in Aedes aegypti using mass spectrometry and transcriptomics, identifying 870 sperm proteins and 280 seminal fluid proteins, with enrichment on chromosome 1.
