My project is on the evaluation of the vector competence of mosquito populations Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus to Zika virus, an arbovirus which is emerging in Brazil. I also investigate the role of coinfections on the evolution of viral populations in mosquitoes.
I received a fellowship from Capes-Cofecub (http://www.campusfrance.org/fr/capes-cofecub).
