Thrilled to share @GhafliHawra first paper from her PhD is out today in @ISEMPH . We describe how vectored trypanosomatids have far lower prevalence than single host tryps and explore why that might be the case using a metaanalysis of > 500 studies 🤯 academic.oup.com/emph/advanc…

NIH resources like BLAST are fundamental to so many researchers. Sadly, these might have been affected by the recent governmental overhaul.
We need to reinstate these public goods but folks still need to get their work done.
In the meantime, check below

My response to a recent article in the @nypost that criticized our lab's research on neonicotinoid insecticides. The intent of the article was to spread disinformation, fool the public, and influence policymakers. Please don't be fooled, folks.

Not to be a crankypuss, but awarding a Nobel for work that suffered from not being taken seriously for decades only *after* it proved to be of incredible value is not a triumph of prizemaking - it's a complete condemnation of it and the entire culture of modern academic science.
