Very happy to be able to present my work on “Flupyradifurone impairs collective brood care in bumblebees” at #IUSSI2022! Come along on Wednesday the 6th in Pacific Ballroom 18-20 to hear about an exciting bioassay able to record sublethal effects.

Liliana Fischer presented an amazing work on the risks of a novel insecticide #flupyradifurone to 🐝 at #IUSSI2022 A great call to action to improve the #pesticide risk assessment

🐝 new paper! 🐝 We tested the effects of a new insecticide (Flupyradifurone) on bumblebee brood incubation. It’s not looking great for the poor little buzzers… Open access read ⤵️ doi.org/10.1016/j.scit… #beeresearch #bumblebees #bees

Next up is Liliana Fischer with her talk: Individual vs. Social Influences - What determines longevity in social insects?

Good to see so many early career members of IUSSI_NWES attending the EuroIUSSI 2024. Thanks IUSSI_NWES for supporting us! Great talk @jankreider, talking about how temperature modulates sociality in the facultative social bee Exoneura robusta!

I was delighted to be able to present our field study at EuroIUSSI 2024 today! Wild bumblebee colonies struggle with resource limitation and can be great indicators for pesticide contamination Thanks IUSSI_NWES for supporting my attendance. @ARIES_DTP Centre for the Adv Study of Collective Behaviour UEA

I have had a blast at EuroIUSSI 2024! What a beautifully organized conference and what a treat yesterday’s excursion was! Thanks to IUSSI_NWES for helping me make these memories and hear about such interesting research! #socialinsects #chillioncastle
