He'd spent that limited amount of time in a room with 100 hungry mosquitoes while wearing nothing but a mesh suit we thought would have protected him.

    Biology student gets screwed but successfully defended master thesis about mosquito flying behaviour.

    Saved you a click.

    The article is written by the thesis advisor, it’s well written and light hearted. If you’re a nerd like me you could even say it’s wholesome in a way.
