My research focuses on insect-microbe interactions, in particular those between mosquitoes and their gut bacteria. We use a combination of experimental and genomic approaches to tease apart the mechanisms by which bacteria regulate fundamental processes in their mosquito hosts—from mosquito development and reproduction to their ability to transmit disease-causing agents to humans and other mammals.
