The Vector Biology Research Group at Texas A&M University is made up of a cadre of diverse faculty in the Department of Entomology and Veterinary Pathology who are united by their interest in insects that transmit human, animal or plant diseases. Our work spans mosquitoes, flies ticks and aphids, and includes the fields of ecology and behavior, molecular biology, toxicology, evolutionary genetics, transgenesis and genomics. Currently, our group consists of 11 faculty, 16 graduate students, and 6 post-doctoral research associates.
