🚨 NEW POD ALERT 🚨 Marie Russell is an ORISE postdoctoral fellow at the Environmental Protection Agency studying the intersection of climate change and human health. Her doctoral degree is in mosquito ecology and she recently published a perspective piece in "EcoHealth" on beneficial use impairments (think litter on beaches as one example) in the Great Lakes Region and the increased risk of mosquito-borne disease, which garnered some media interest and interview opportunities. In this conversation, Russell talks to guest host Matthew Underwood about her research, the perspective piece, how she became interested in the field of mosquito ecology, and what she hopes happens next. 🔊 Listen to the episode: https://bit.ly/3iCFId5 #ShapingScience
