The VectorByte initiative is establishing a global open access data platform to study disease vectors. This project serves as a hub for biological trait (VecTraits) and abundance data (VecDyn) for human and non-human disease vectors, plus training!
New @vectorbyte.bsky.social preprint: Modeling asymmetric Thermal Performace Curves for proportion data - led by Prof Leah Johnson, with Paul Huxley @phuxley.bsky.social, Cat Lippi @lippikiyay.bsky.social, and Prof Sadie Ryan @sjryan3.bsky.social.

We crossed the 25 million mark at VecDyn!! We now have nearly 500 datasets with over 25 million rows of data spatiotemporal data online, with more in our curatorial pipeline.

You've seen the curves, maybe you implemented this at a @vectorbyte.bsky.social workshop.
Now live for primetime - bayesTPC in R! Great job VT team!!
