UK Scientists Study Insect Disease Spread
9 Oct
Summary
- New project Pamec studies insect-borne disease risks in the UK.
- Research combines lab work with UK-wide field studies.
- Mathematical models will improve understanding of current and future risks.
Researchers in the UK have launched a new project to better understand insect-borne diseases. Named Pamec, it aims to address knowledge gaps concerning mosquitoes and midges.
The program will integrate laboratory research with field studies conducted at various UK locations. This comprehensive approach is expected to inform new mathematical models.
These models will enhance the understanding of both present and future risks associated with insect-borne diseases. The project builds upon findings from the earlier Mosquito Scotland initiative.
