Have you ever wondered how mosquitoes find you over long distances and why they bite you more than other people? Check out our recent work published in @CurrentBiology led by @dags263 & @stephrankin2 in collaboration with the Macha Research Trust, Zambia. cell.com/current-biolog…

Deeply honored and grateful to receive this award! Thank you for the opportunity @HopkinsKavli and the invaluable guidance of my mentors @kishoreneuro and @BaselessPursuit. Excited to continue my postdoctoral research, exploring new frontiers in habit formation.

This #WorldMosquitoDay, take a look at this mosquito spitting out malaria parasites 🔬 It's carrying sporozoites, the infective stage of #malaria. If you got bitten, you could be infected. 🎥 from the Sinnis Lab at JHMRI, which investigates this stage of malaria transmission

Have you ever wondered when a habit becomes a habit? Like when you were supposed to turn left to the grocery store but ended up turning right as if going to work? Check out our recent work w/@kishoreneuro @baselesspursuit @ziyizhu15 @Sun_Ruolan and twitter-less Zyan Wang in a 🧵

Why did a bunch of volunteers pipe their scents into a skating rink full of mosquitoes? To help @McMenimanLab learn the exact smells that mosquitoes prefer. Hear more on today’s @publichealthpod with @SDesmon and @JHMRImalaria’s Conor McMeniman. johnshopkinssph.libsyn.com/630-why-are-so…

In print in today's paper is a great article by @nytimes journalist @EmilyAnthes on @McMenimanLab's new research. Check out the science published in @CurrentBiology. Have a read on Page D8 or online here: tinyurl.com/4hctd4m2 @BloombergDotOrg @JohnsHopkinsSPH
