CO2 is an important cue used by #mosquitoes when searching for a human blood meal. @darbly.bsky.social @megyounger.bsky.social &co show that the wiring of #neurons that sense CO2 differs from that in #Drosophila, allowing robust detection of this key host cue @plosbiology.org 🧪 buff.ly/jk3046I

Very honoured to present #UniFr and #Switzerland in the 2026 FKNE cohort ! Looking forward to be part of a network with so many bright minds, to promote (neuro)science research and education not only in Europe but also #LMICs, and to bring our comparative, cross-species approach to FKNE.
