Insects . 2023 Sep; 14(9). PMID: 37754692
Age-related changes in behavior and sensory perception have been observed in a wide variety of animal species. In ants and other eusocial insects, workers often progress through an ordered sequence...

Ye Z, Liu F, Sun H, Ferguson S, Baker A, Ochieng S, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Jun; 119(23):e2112385119. PMID: 35648836
Anopheline mosquitoes rely on their highly sensitive chemosensory apparatus to detect diverse chemical stimuli that drive the host-seeking and blood-feeding behaviors required to vector pathogens for malaria and other diseases....

Matthaios V, Lawrence J, Martins M, Ferguson S, Wolfson J, Harrison R, et al.
Sci Total Environ . 2022 Apr; 835:155368. PMID: 35460767
Traffic-related particulate matter (PM) plays an important role in urban air pollution. However, sources of urban pollution are difficult to distinguish. This study utilises a mobile particle concentrator platform and...

Ye Z, Liu F, Ferguson S, Baker A, Pitts R, Zwiebel L
Insect Biochem Mol Biol . 2021 May; 134:103578. PMID: 33933561
Anopheline mosquitoes are the sole vectors of malaria and rely on olfactory cues for host seeking in which ammonia derived from human sweat plays an essential role. To investigate the...

Ferguson S, Bakis I, Zwiebel L
Insects . 2021 Apr; 12(3). PMID: 33802783
Over the past decade, spurred in part by the sequencing of the first ant genomes, there have been major advances in the field of olfactory myrmecology. With the discovery of...

Ferguson S, Park K, Ruff A, Bakis I, Zwiebel L
J Exp Biol . 2020 Jan; 223(Pt 2). PMID: 31900348
In eusocial ants, aggressive behaviors require the ability to discriminate between chemical signatures such as cuticular hydrocarbons that distinguish nestmate friends from non-nestmate foes. It has been suggested that a...

Sci Rep . 2018 Apr; 8(1):5656. PMID: 29618749
Anopheles gambiae coluzzii (An. coluzzii) uses olfaction to modulate a range of critical behaviors that are essential for survival and reproduction; most notably, host preference and selection underlie its vectorial...
