Two new SEED grants to support mosquito research in the lab!

We are excited to announce that the lab has received two new SEED grants to support research conducted in the lab.

The first is a CALS Research Investment Area Seed Grant Award – Infectious disease entitled "Understanding the drivers of vector-borne diseases threatening rural population health – facets of varying spatial eco-epidemiology" in collaboration with Gillian Eastwood and Leah Johnson.

The second is a CeZAP Interdisciplinary Team-building Pilot Grant entitled "Arbovirus-driven changes in reservoir host odor and their consequences for mosquito host preference" in collaboration Anna Perez-Umphrey, Dana Hawley and Nisha Duggal.

We are grateful to CeZAP and CALS ORI for their support and look forward to working on these two projects!
