Nicole A. Scavo studies mosquitoes and the diseases they can spread to people and animals, with a strong focus on the yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti). Much of the work examines how urban environments and social and economic conditions shape where mosquitoes live and how people are exposed to them, using tools like blood-meal analysis, field surveillance, and laboratory experiments. Study sites include Puerto Rico, Texas, Florida, Louisiana, and Guatemala.
