Abstract

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Lindsay Martin is an author on ‘ Senescence of humoral antimicrobial immunity occurs in infected mosquitoes when the temperature is higher’, published in JEB. Lindsay is a graduate student in the lab of Julián Hillyer at Vanderbilt University, USA, investigating how warming environmental temperature alters mosquito aging and immunity, and how warmer temperature and aging interact together to modify the mosquito's ability to fight an infection.
