SUMMARY:Understanding Insecticide Resistance Webinar Series | Part II
DESCRIPTION:The Importance of Understanding Resistance Mechanisms and Management Theories  \nInsecticide resistance occurs when genetic changes in mosquitoes\, driven by insecticide exposure\, compromise control efforts in the field. Laboratory and field tests play a critical role in determining whether an insecticide or product remains effective. In this webinar\, Janet McAllister will discuss resistance mechanisms and their impact on cross- and multi-resistance\, highlighting how identifying these mechanisms can inform alternative control strategies. She will also explore the three key theories of resistance management—moderation\, saturation\, and multiple methods—to provide practical approaches for tackling resistance. \nMeet the Speaker \nJanet McAllister\, Principal Research Entomologist\, City of New Orleans Mosquito\, Termite and Rodent Control Board \nDr. Janet McAllister is a board-Certified Medical Entomologist. She earned her undergraduate and master’s degrees from Louisiana State University.  Her PhD in Medical Entomology comes from the University of Arkansas.  Dr. McAllister retired as a Research Entomologist from the CDC Division of Vector-Borne Diseases in May 2024 after 20 years of public service evaluating the efficacy of mosquito control tools and responding to outbreaks and natural disasters. She is currently the Principal Research Entomologist for the City of New Orleans Mosquito\, Termite and Rodent Control Board where she supervises the mosquito control unit. Dr. McAllister’s research specialties are insecticide resistance and mosquito control evaluation. She is a Past President of the American Mosquito Control Association\, Louisiana Mosquito Control Association and West Central Mosquito and Vector Control Association. She is also an AMCA Medal of Honor recipient for outstanding contributions to the science and control of mosquitoes\, other vectors and vector-borne diseases.
