How does division of labor in stingless bees affect thermal performance, and who in the colony is most vulnerable to a changing thermal environment? Find out in @Bug_Biologist 's 1st published chapter of her dissertation! doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2… @USMConservBio #TTTOP #USM

A bit more of host-parasite interactions and neuromodulation #icn2024berlin #neuroethology @AvispaTica 🧠🐝🧟

Some amazing work on a really cool group! Check it out!

Congrats to PhD candidate Kristin Robinson! This was an Animal Behavior course project she came up with and led her classmates to complete as a team back in 2023. @USMConservBio Southern Miss
