Statistical Modelling of Mosquito Abundance and West Nile Virus Risk with Weather Conditions
Weather affects the abundance of mosquito vectors of mosquito-borne infectious diseases such as West Nile virus (WNv). Study and prediction of these effects could be used to develop disease forecasting methods. In this dissertation, we analyzed the frequency distribution of mosquito surveillance …

Morphological differentiation of eggs and comparative efficacy of oviposition and gravid traps for Aedes vectors at different habitats
Mosquito surveillance is an integral part of understanding mosquito-borne disease, including and not limited to the La Crosse virus. The primary container-inhabiting Aedeni vectors include Aedes triseritatus, Aedes albopictus, and Aedes japonicus. To better understand the efficacy of gravid traps …

The Use of Remote Sensing for Mapping Possible Vectors of West Nile Virus in Mississippi
<p>There is renewed interest in disease surveillance due to the persistence of numerous vector-borne diseases. Though the life-history processes of disease vectors are known to dictate their distribution patterns, it has been hypothesized that vectors, such as local mosquito abundance, could be …

Cache Valley Virus: A Comparison Across Both Lineages and Reassortant Strains Using in vitro and in vivo Models
Cache Valley virus (CVV) is an emerging mosquito-borne orthobunyavirus of significant concern to One Health. CVV was first isolated from Culiseta inornata mosquitoes in Cache Valley, Utah in 1956 and has sporadically emerged to cause epizootics in livestock, particularly affecting small ruminants. …

Improved estimates of risk of exposure to pathogens transmitted by mosquitoes
The exposure of humans to mosquitoes that carry infectious pathogens is a central component to assess the risk of people becoming infected with the pathogen and succumbing to a range of illness. Mosquito-borne illnesses are increasing, but the understanding of the effect of exposure to mosquitoes …

Metabolomics-based diagnosis and prognosis of dengue virus infections and NS1 antigen detection for diagnosis and surveillance in humans and mosquitoes
Dengue (DEN) is a mosquito-borne viral disease of significant public health importance. There are currently no commercialized vaccines or accepted pharmacological treatments for DEN disease, making mosquito surveillance critical for the prevention of outbreaks of this disease. Aedes aegypti is the …
