Thank you to Royal Entomological Society for an amazing week at #Ento24 !! I learnt so much, and met so many lovely entomologists :) See you next year !

Excited to be volunteering with parasitologist Wendy Gibson today ! We’re talking all things vectors today 🪰🏥. Come visit !

I loved Ray Barnett ‘s talk at M Shed yesterday ! Amazing to see how Bristol has changed over time, and how insects have shifted alongside it. Who knew that there was a huge quarry on durdham downs ?? Certainly not me ! 🐜🚜
