According to the World Health Organization, mosquito-borne infections result in over 700,000 deaths annually. To help curb this huge burden on public health, scientists have been searching for better ways to manage mosquito populations to inhibit the spread of disease. A new approach to control mosquitos surfaced this year: disrupting proteins essential in egg formation to make the eggs collapse. A new blog on our website talks about the research and how our insect chambers can help with similar research.

How long ago did sleep evolve? Previous estimates had sleep-like states first originating in animals ~300 million years ago. However, new research with zebrafish adjusts that estimate all the way back to ~450 million years ago. We have a new blog on our website that discusses what they found and how our refrigerated incubators can be used for research like this.

How long ago did sleep evolve? We talk about new research in zebrafish on the origins of sleep and how our refrigerated incubators can help with these studies.
