Biography
Dr. Forrester-Soto’s research focuses on the within-host evolution of RNA viruses, particularly how viruses infect mosquitoes at the molecular level. She spent the majority of her research career at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas. Since moving to Keele University at the beginning of 2018, she is establishing a similar research programme, as well as branching out to investigate environmental pressures on the mosquito vectors of important viral infections. Her goal is to identify how viruses adapt to their mosquito vectors and how these evolutionary pressures result in successful infection and transmission of the mosquito vector.
