A thread on current knowledge from @INHSillinois Medical Entomology Lab’s active surveillance of ticks in Illinois. We started this arm of our tick program in mid-2019 with the IL Dept. of Public Health. We’ve collected nearly 10,000 adult/nymphal #ticks & learned a lot. 1/n

Tick Tip #2: Carry a lint roller when you are hiking, and roll it over your clothes frequently. I once rolled off >1000 larval ticks and not one managed to bite me! I learned this tip and more from following @VectorCollector.

My colleague Elliott Zieman @eiubiosci woke up to this adult female American dog tick clinging to outside of window screen today! Feels kind of…creepy & menacing 🫢 Ticks are now out & active in #Illinois & seem ready to seize the day! Photo credits: Dr. E. Zieman @eiu

@alphagal_info Wow. I’m so sorry you had to experience that. Was it terrifying?

Asthma was the 1st symptom I associated with eating red meat; I wasn't diagnosed until I had anaphylactic rxns yrs later. More like 10 minutes after eating in my case. I had to eat liver pâté at my doctor's office to convince her that my reactions were real. #listentopatients

23.23% of patients with #asthma and 33.56% of those with a #VitaminD deficiency reported an #alphagal reaction within five minutes of exposure, said @DrJenPlatt of @TBCU2018 and @UNCpublichealth at #AAAAI23. @alphagal_info @twoalphagals bit.ly/3mfdufl

In Boston today sharing analysis with resident researchers on housing affordability as part of a collaboration with MIT’s Healthy Neighborhoods Initiative. The storytelling that @emmalwalters and Julia de Souza Campos Paiva did led to powerful storytelling and conversation…

@VectorCollector OMG, I would love to have that suit! There is a spot in a nearby state with rare dragonfly species I am dying to see, but without this suit or a personal hovercraft, not going to happen.

They’re baaaaack! Lone star ticks are active, hungry, and in pursuit across their occupied territory in Illinois. Want to see where we’ve found them with repeat quantitative dragging across the state for the past 4 years? Check out the IDPH maps here! go.illinois.edu/illinois-ticks

Want to see lone star tick nymphs in action, crawling up off the forest floor and running up my boot in pursuit of me? Here you go!

Watching a movie, I tell my 9-yr old: “But, you can see an upside if you choose to - the most challenging adverse circumstances & unfair situations - can create the best leaders.” She replies: “And, supervillains!” Touché. A new perspective & opportunity to develop sympathy.

How can we predict species responses to #climatechange if they are going to experience temperatures that we have not observed yet? New paper in @PNASNews led by Ty Wagner incorporates thermal tolerances into statistical models of abundance. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
