Mosquitoes transmit an array of pathogens, making them one of the world’s most deadly animals. Although approximately half the world population is at risk for a mosquito-borne disease, we lack a detailed understanding of many important aspects of mosquito biology. Leveraging biophysical, engineering, and machine vision approaches, we aim to better understand what makes mosquitoes such deadly efficient disease vectors.
