A Machine Learning‐Based Dynamic SST Index for Long‐Lead Malaria Prediction in the Peruvian Amazon
Abstract Malaria imposes a major health burden in the Peruvian Amazon, and its early warning is essential for effective disease prevention. The tropical sea surface temperature (SST) variability, fundamentally shaping the global weather patterns, may also alter malaria transmission and potentially improve its long‐lead predictability. In this study, we

People living in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world face an enormous health burden due to mosquito‐borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and filariasis. Historically and today, targeting mosquito vectors with, primarily, insecticide‐based control strategies have been a key control strategy against major mosquito‐borne diseases ...

A Scoping Review of Machine Learning Applications Across Epidemiological Stages of Zoonotic Disease
Emerging zoonotic diseases represent a significant threat to global health. While machine learning (ML) holds promise for their management, a comprehensive understanding of how these technologies are applied across the entire animal‐to‐human transmission pathway is lacking.

ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.

Fat body (FB) acts as a major metabolic center important for the regulation of a variety of physiological processes such as embryogenesis, reproduction, flight, overwintering, protection, and communication. Lipid amounts and fatty acid (FA) composition vary with species, stage of life, and their diet.

Current stewardship practices in invasion biology limit the value and secondary use of genomic data
Abstract Invasive species threaten native biota, putting fragile ecosystems at risk and having a large‐scale impact on primary industries. Growing trade networks and the popularity of personal travel make incursions a more frequent risk, one only compounded by global climate change.

Ecology of malaria vectors in the Americas and future direction
The resurgence of malaria in the Americas has renewed interest in Anopheles biology. Anopheles darlingi, An. albimanus, An. nuneztovai and An aquasalis are reconfirmed as major malaria vectors and other species are playing important roles in regional ...

We compiled primary occurrence data for Culicidae in Brazil and our findings showed limitations in the spatial and temporal coverage of digital Culicidae data compared with the literature occurrence data. The Atlantic and Amazon Forests presented well‐surveyed inventories in Brazil's north and southeast. However, the distribution of occurrences reveals
