Our work on human odor coding in the Zika/dengue mosquito now in final form! This collaborative work was led by Zhilei Zhao with critical contributions from Jessica Zung on odor analysis, Annika Hinze and Rickard Ignell on wind tunnel behavior… nature.com/articles/s4158…

Save the date! On July 4-5th we will organize a symposium with David Carrasco (MIVEGEC; IRD.fr). Join us at “Behaviour of Arthropod Disease Vectors: A source for biorational pest control in a One Health context”.
