Last week we attended the WCMVCA and WMVCA joint meetings in Jackson, WY. We tested our vector knowledge at a game of trivia, talked mosquitoes & ticks, and enjoyed seeing our colleagues and peers! 🦟Thanks to all who organized, looking forward to next year! #mosquitoes #publichealth

One positive thing that happend this otherwise challenging week is that this paper is FINALLY out. Why are Culex tarsalis so good at spreading West Nile virus? We learned a lot by doing this study. A testament to the tenacity and creativity of Dr. Emily Fitzmeyer. journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Much needed, solid, objective, well done work to realistically assess possible mosquito vectors of the emergent Oropouche virus.

Whenever I tell people that I am a prof, I typically get asked "what classes do you teach?" Teaching is important but I spend most of my time running an NIH-funded lab. I wish more people appreciated that research is an economic driver for the state. MN receives $957,099,187 in NIH funding

Are you an early-career researcher looking for a forever home? I found that the perfect home may be in an unexpected department. That perfect home allows you to thrive in ways you never anticipated. In the best possible outcome, the benefits go both ways. I reflected on my path recently for JVI:

Another study makes the Covid lab leak theory appear implausible. The Wuhan Institute analyzed the genomes of 56 types of coronaviruses recovered from all of the bats they collected 2004-2021. All of the viruses are very different from SARS-CoV-2. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I spoke to @mscribe.bsky.social @theguardian.com about the H5N1 case in BC. More and more human cases are occurring, along with mutations that indicate further human adaptation. We need to treat these cases like a warning, because that is what they are. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/n...

A weekend-worthy preprint! This was a pretty fun study about a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak among animals at the Denver Zoo. Probably the last of our SARS papers? Who knows. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Powassan virus is highly (weirdly so) phenotypically variable. Here's a paper from Bekah McMinn's Ph.D. work where she explored the ability of several low passage strains to infect ticks. The work was complex and time consuming. Very proud of and happy for her. www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/16...
