  • WMel replacement of dengue-competent mosquitoes is robust to near-term climate change

    Open AccessVáleri Vásquez, Lara M Kueppers et al.ARTICLENature Climate Change2023

    Rising temperatures are impacting the range and prevalence of mosquito-borne diseases. A promising biocontrol technology replaces wild mosquitoes with those carrying the virus-blocking Wolbachia bacterium. Because the most widely used strain, w Mel, is adversely affected by heat stress, we examined how global warming may influence w Mel-based replacement. We simulated interventions in two locations with successful field trials using Coupled Model…

  • Translating gene drive science to promote linguistic diversity in community and stakeholder engagement
