New publication from our lab in CRPVBD (Elsevier). We show how discarded tyres along a ~200 km long transport corridor (Panitanki–Barobisha) in sub-Himalayan West Bengal act as key breeding hotspots for Aedes. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.crpv… @PraptiDas17 @sahaabhirup99

Honoured to see our latest study featured on the front page of The Telegraph. Our research highlights how discarded tyres along major transport corridors are acting as hotspots for Aedes mosquito breeding, increasing dengue transmission risk. Read more: doi.org/10.1016/j.crpv…

From reading Prof. John Vontas’ papers while shaping my PhD work…......to discussing my own research with him in person at the conference.........an experience I’ll never forget.

Landed in Kuala Lumpur for the 9th Molecular Insect Science Conference! ......Excited for the next 3 days......

Presented my work at the 18th SOMA Conference hosted by Central University of Tamil Nadu. Had wonderful interactions with stalwarts in vector control research, learned a lot, and truly enjoyed the discussions. And yes… the filter coffee made it even better ☕

@debajyotic_iisc Congratulations bhai..........

Officially a PhD! 🎓✨ Grateful to my teachers, mentors, and especially my guide, Prof. Raghavan Varadarajan, for shaping my journey. Heartfelt thanks to my family, friends, colleagues, and to God for the strength throughout. Excited for the road ahead. 🙏💫

Just a regular tuesday at North Bengal University..........

Went for a bike ride to Kanyam today...... perfect weather and a cup of coffee made it even better....

I had a great time presenting my work at the National Conference on Technologies for Mitigation of Disease Vectors and Other Jungle Hazards, organized by DRL-DRDO, Tezpur. Grateful for the opportunity and warm hospitality. @DRDO_India

Happy to share that our work is now published in The Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology.........We evaluated the susceptibility of Culex quinquefasciatus from northern Bengal against different synthetic and botanical insecticides.

#WorldMosquitoDay2025 dengue awareness programme organised by Siliguri Municipal Corporation & North Bengal Science Centre: from our lab, we have demonstrated to school kids how to identify Aedes mosquitoes and made them aware of their habitats & how to stay safe.

Perks of mosquito sampling- # Visiting new places: Teesta river at Maynaguri # Eating at new eateries: Misti from Fulbari Mistanna Bhandar

New publication form our lab; my first research article @EntsocAmerica @sahaabhirup99 @PraptiDas17

Happy to share that my first research paper is published in the Journal of Medical Entomology. We report metabolic resistance to temephos & deltamethrin in Ae. albopictus from sub-Himalayan West Bengal, India. Grateful to all the co-authors @EntsocAmerica academic.oup.com/jme/article-ab…

Proud to have contributed to this research. Latest publication from our lab, happy to be part of it! #ResearchLife

After a heavy rain, a clear view of the hill at night........... from North Bengal University ground

From university campus.........What a view to begin the week with ...............— University of North Bengal

My first publication....prepared during my Ph.D. coursework! This review highlights key target site mutations (kdr, ace, rdl, nAChR) and detection methods, emphasizing the need for scalable tools to monitor insecticide resistance in mosquitoes effectively. #VectorControl

Looking for motivated students, qualified for NET-JRF (independent fellowship) and interested in working on systematics, evolution, and biogeography, with a focus on helminthes of freshwater fishes. #helminthology #cestodes #trematodes #nematodes #parasite @UoB_official 1/2
