Decided against #EntSoc2022 due to lack of mask mandate but luckily my supervisor (Dr. Nigel Raine) stepped in to present out work on Wednesday for anyone attending the conference!

"She moves in mysterious ways: tracking bumble bee queen movement to identify critical habitat gaps"

Check out other presentations happening today by members of our lab!

1/6 - As people are traveling to #EntSoc2022 in Vancouver I wanted to take the opportunity to advertize the talk of my #PhD student Robert Ostrom. Using #HoneyBee #WaggleDances as #BioIndicators he is trying to predict native #bee #abundance, #richness and #diversity.

Honey bee foragers that have found a profitable resource will perform waggle dances when back in the hive. This was first scientifically described by Karl von Frisch (reviewed here: https://rdcu.be/cZvHq).

Finishing up slides today for the #EntSoc2022 conference. My supervisor will be presenting in person on my behalf our work:
