"Biorational Yeast RNAi-based Integrated Mosquito Control Programs"
Despite the devastating impact of vector mosquitoes on human society, we know very little about mosquito development. When I set up our lab on the campus of Notre Dame over a decade ago, I hoped to use my training as a comparative arthropod developmental biologist at the University of Chicago to address this gap in our knowledge of mosquito biology. This led to our use of siRNA-mediated gene silencing to study development of the mosquito nervous system. In recent years, our large-scale effort to apply RNA interference to mosquito control resulted in development of yeast interfering RNA pesticides that target multiple species of disease vector mosquitoes. This discovery led to a journey from the bench to the field that has involved a collaborative effort among molecular geneticists, entomologists, field biologists, Ministry of Health employees, bioengineers, ethicists, social scientists, as well as business and technology transfer experts. My lab’s interdisciplinary mindset and collaborative spirit further our ongoing efforts to advance basic research discoveries into translational solutions for controlling mosquito-borne illnesses.
