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. Serena Farrell is an author on ‘ Voltage-gated ion channels are expressed in the Malpighian tubules and anal papillae of yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti and may regulate ion transport during salt and water imbalance’, published in JEB. Serena conducted the research described in this article while a undergraduate student in Dennis Kolosov's lab at California State University San Marcos, USA. She is now a PhD student in the lab of Spencer Behmer at Texas A&M University, USA, investigating the molecular physiology of insects and how they interact with their environment.
