Peter M. Piermarini studies the physiology of mosquitoes, particularly the ion channels and transport proteins (such as potassium channels and sodium-dependent cotransporters) that regulate fluid balance, and how these can be targeted with insecticides or natural compounds like geraniol and cannabidiol to kill mosquito larvae. This work is aimed at developing new tools to control mosquitoes such as Aedes aegypti, which transmit diseases like yellow fever and dengue. Prospective students would likely work on insect physiology, toxicology, and the discovery/testing of mosquito-control compounds.
Publication output was highest around 2017-2020, dropped sharply in 2021-2023, and has picked up again in 2024-2026, suggesting an overall slowing with some recent recovery.
