Douglas E. Norris

Douglas E. Norris studies mosquitoes and ticks that transmit diseases like malaria, focusing on their species identification, genetics, biting behavior, and geographic spread, particularly in Zambia and other regions. His work combines fieldwork with molecular and genomic techniques to understand vector biology and improve disease surveillance and control strategies. Much of this research supports malaria elimination efforts by characterizing understudied or invasive mosquito species and how they contribute to disease transmission.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from single digits annually in 2017-2019 to a peak of 18 in 2024, indicating an increasingly active research program.
