Hydrophilic Janus Micelles From an ABC Triblock Copolymer
An amphiphilic triblock copolymer with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(N‐vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) coronas self‐assembles into spherical micelles with Janus‐type surface segregation in water. Cryo‐TEM, enabled by selective PVP labeling, and 1H‐NOESY NMR reveal phase separation.

Evaluating vector competence for Yellow fever in the Caribbean
The mosquito-borne disease, Yellow fever (YF), has been largely controlled via mass delivery of an effective vaccine and mosquito control interventions. However, there are warning signs that YF is re-emerging in both Sub-Saharan Africa and South America.

We report that Aedes albopictus Paris collected in June 2023 were experimentally able to transmit at least three dengue virus (DENV) serotypes, from 14 days post-infection (dpi) for DENV-3 and DENV-4, and from 21 dpi for DENV-2.

Chemosterilants for Control of Insects and Insect Vectors of Disease
Both historically and at present, vector control is the most generally effective means of controlling malaria transmission. Insecticides are the predominant method of vector control, but the sterile insect technique (SIT) is a complementary strategy with a successful track record in both agricultural and public health sectors.
