Midwest Center of Excellence for Vector-Borne Dise @mcevbd
Researchers and public health experts working together to monitor, understand, and control mosquitoes & ticks and the diseases they carry in the MidwestJoined June 2022
MCE-VBD is recruiting two postdoctoral scholars to lead CDC-funded projects investigating vector and vector-borne disease management, using statistical models combined with field surveys and observations. Great candidates are encouraged to apply! mcevbd.wisc.edu/news/2022/mce-…
Our yards and gardens needed the rain! Now be sure to check for standing water that may have been left behind. In a dry year mosquitoes are desperate to find breeding sources and clogged gutters, loose containers, and waste tires make happy homes for mosquito larvae.
Thanks to @CDCgov, funding for the Midwest Center of Excellence for Vector-borne Disease based out of @UWMadison will be renewed for another 5 years! Excited to excited to continue and expand the important work we have been doing related to #vectorbornediseases in the Midwest
What's a great way to improve local mosquito & tick capacity?
✔️#collaborating with partners
✔️bolstering capacity through peer-to-peer information sharing
