Mosquito colony feeds on blood from scientist’s arm – video | Australia news

Dr Véronique Paris has a hands-on approach to her research — she lets hundreds of mosquitoes bite her arm in order to feed and maintain her mosquito lab. Paris helps research mosquito-borne diseases. “We have people working on mosquitoes here that don’t feed their own colonies, there will always be volunteers around that can do that, so no one has to feed mosquitos if they don’t want to and that’s totally fine,” Paris says
