Got some experience setting up my first mosquito trap today with Eric Caragata . Excited to see the results in the AM!
#Entomology #mosquitos

It has been a pleasure presenting on the mosquito microbiota in a Zoolander fashion 😗 at #entsoc2022 Eric Caragata 📷 LM Otero

So grateful for having the chance to present at our Indian River State College Senior Research Symposium today. Thanks to Tom D'Elia Megan Carroll and Eric Caragata for their mentorship and guidance.

Today, while brainstorming ideas with Eric Caragata, I came up with this motto to describe CI. Took it to the next level and turned it into a full picture.

Credit due, the Wolbachia design is from the talented Manuela Bernardi! Phage design is not mine.

Here's some putative cuticle-associated fungi we're isolating from field-collected mosquitoes in Florida.

Eric Caragata and I concur! Congratulations to our academic mom McGrawLab @[email protected]!!!

Our review work is out today Trends in Parasitology! Lead by Eric Caragata and Dr. Luciano Moreira, we follow up on our initial review published in 2016. authors.elsevier.com/c/1dRlv5Eb1x7r… [1/3]

We are still accepting manuscripts for the special issue 'Mosquito-Borne Diseases: Novel Control Strategies'. All mosquitoes and their transmitted diseases are welcome. Reach out if you have questions. mdpi.com/si/66900 #mdpipathogens via Pathogens MDPI Eric Caragata

Wow! I am so honored to have been awarded the U.S. National Science Foundation GRFP! I could not have done this without the help and mentorship of my wonderful PI at UF FMEL Eric Caragata as well as fantastic advisors at IRSC like Tom D'Elia Megan Carroll and Pat Pongam. 🎉 🧬 🧫 Indian River State College UF IFAS FMEL

Step into Dr. Caragata's lab! Eric Caragata focuses on mosquito-microbe interactions. He collects and identifies bacteria and fungi from mosquitoes as part of that work.

New research article on environmental drivers of mosquito microbial diversity out today in Frontiers in Tropical Diseases. Led by Daniel W. Pérez-Ramos & Martina Marti Ramos & assisted by Bryan V. Giordano, PhD & undergrad Kyle Payne: frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Mosquito fellows: any recommendations for climatic chambers? We need to replace ours ASAP. Jason Rasgon Omar Akbari Eric Caragata Nikos Vasilakis Kevin Maringer (he/they) 🏳️‍🌈🔬🦟🦠 Alphey Lab and all the others: help please 🙏🏻
