Overview

John C. Beier is affiliated with the University of Miami in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on the field of medicine, with a significant emphasis on public health, environmental and occupational health, as well as infectious diseases.

Their work spans several specialized subfields including sociology and political science, plant science, and modeling and simulation. The main topics addressed in their research cover mosquito-borne diseases and control, viral infections and vectors, malaria research and control, dengue and mosquito control research, insect pest control strategies, zoonotic diseases and public health, and COVID-19 epidemiological studies.

Their recent publications encompass a range of subjects related to vector control and public health challenges. Selected papers include:

  • Large-scale field trial of attractive toxic sugar baits (ATSB) for the control of malaria vector mosquitoes in Mali, West Africa, 2020, Malaria Journal
  • Aedes albopictus (Asian Tiger Mosquito), 2020, Trends in Parasitology
  • Perspectives on the Health Effects of Hurricanes: A Review and Challenges, 2021, International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health
  • Urbanization favors the proliferation of Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus in urban areas of Miami-Dade County, Florida, 2021, Scientific Reports
  • Proliferation of Aedes aegypti in urban environments mediated by the availability of key aquatic habitats, 2020, Scientific Reports

Throughout their career, John C. Beier has collaborated frequently with a group of coauthors, including:

  • André Barretto Bruno Wilke
