This Monday, another of our CBERians, @idrisadams.bsky.social shared a sneak peek of his fascinating PhD work on the evolution of solitary wasps 🧠🐝. He walked us through the evolutionary traits and behaviours that make these insects so unique. A big thank you for such a insightful talk!

Looking forward to reading @robinince.bsky.social new book after his wonderful talk today in St Albans. Highly recommend catching him on tour if you can!
