This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this riveting talk, Michel Slotman discusses the threat the Mosquito is to Humans, and what his research can do about it.

Michel Slotman received his BSc and MS in Biology from Wageningen University in The Netherlands. He obtained a PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Yale University in 2003 based on his research on the genetics of hybrid sterility between two species of African malaria mosquitoes. He subsequently received post-doctoral training in the Department of Entomology at the University of California at Davis, where he studied the population genetics of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae. He returned to Yale University in 2005 where he conducted additional post-doctoral research on the molecular evolution of immune genes in the Anopheles species complex. In 2008 Dr Slotman moved to the department of Entomology at Texas A&M University where is currently is an assistant professor in medical entomology. His lab studies the evolutionary and behavioral genetics of disease carrying mosquitoes.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
