Let's hope many insect neuroscientists working in #Drosophila, #mosquito and other critters apply.
Contact Chris Potter of #Anopheles mosquito research fame http://potterlab.johnshopkins.edu/ for an insider view of how it is to run an insect neuro lab there.

#Anopheles stephensi has newly arrived in eastern Africa and is an important #malaria vector, especially in urban areas - the seasonal dynamics of this #mosquito has been reviewed and analysed to improve detection and control operations - article by Charles Whittaker and others in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (@PNASNews), vol. 120, issue 8, art. e2216142120 - https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2216142120
"The new invasive species may mean that the development of new suburbs is building #malaria into the landscape"
A new invasive mosquito has been found in Kenya – what this means for malaria control

I drew these mosquitoes, larvae and eggs as soon as I began to study their distribution dynamics

I am also interested in #Anopheles #mosquitoes that transmit #Plasmodium parasites which cause #malaria. I study #PopulationGenomics of these #vectors to find #CrypticSpecies and signals of #NaturalSelection which sometimes turns out to be not so natural (e.g. caused by #insecticides). Understanding patterns of #GeneticDiversity in these insects can help us better control them.
