The paper examines how WNV infection and temperature interact to affect mosquito traits and transmission potential, finding infection alters thermal performance and reduces estimated transmission intensity.

The paper investigates how temperature affects mosquito parasite infection across a climate gradient, finding nonlinear thermal responses and consistent results between field and lab studies.

This paper introduces flexTPC, a flexible and interpretable thermal performance curve model that outperforms existing models in predictive performance across microbial and entomological datasets.

The paper shows that rising temperatures correlate with increased West Nile virus genetic diversity and transmission potential in mosquitoes.

The paper studies higher-order interactions in antibiotic combinations on Escherichia coli and finds they increase in frequency with more drugs, showing net synergy and emergent antagonism.
