A Short‐Read Amplicon Sequencing Protocol and Bioinformatic Pipeline for Ecological Surveillance of Dipteran Disease Vectors

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
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.

Mathematical Modeling of Dengue Epidemic: Control Methods and Vaccination Strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Dengue is one of the most important infectious diseases in the world, in terms of death and economic cost. Hence, the modeling of dengue is of great importance to help us understand the dynamics disease, and interfering with its spreading mathematical by the proposition of control methods. In this work, control strategies in an attempt to eliminate the

Immunosenescence Profile Is Associated With Increased Susceptibility to Severe COVID‐19

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
(A) A previous immunosenescence profile in individuals infected with SARS‐CoV2 creates a permissive environment for progression to severe COVID‐19: higher inflammaging, accumulation of exhausted/senescent T cells, an oligoclonal B‐cell repertoire, and accelerated epigenetic age.

The role of larval density and food availability in life‐history traits of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated the effects of competition (food availability and larval density) on Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) mortality and development. Food had a more pronounced effect on mortality and development time than density, but density had a higher impact on adult size and lifespan.
