James Stewart

Research Interests: “My name is James Stewart and I am an Entomology: Vector-Borne Disease Biology MS applicant. I am motivated to pursue an education and career in this field due to a lifelong interest in the biological sciences and infectious disease. I am fascinated by a wide range of topics, including pathogen influence on host behavior, factors impacting vectorial capacity, and aspects of vector biology that can be exploited to develop efficient control methods. I am attracted to Cornell because of the broad, interdisciplinary nature of the new program, as well as the inspiring research and reputation of its many talented faculty. I believe my interests overlap strongly with the overarching goals of the Northeast Regional Center for Excellence in Vector-Borne Disease Research (NEVBD) and its many principal investigators. I am confident that a master’s degree from Cornell will enable me to develop meaningful relationships and a rewarding career within the realm of public health entomology.
