Out today in @RSocPublishing! We show that butterflies and moths accumulate so much static electricity that pollen is attracted onto them across air gaps, meaning they don't even need to make contact with the flower to pollinate it! 🦋🌻 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… 🧵👇

Our paper with @BristolBioSci shows how to measure the charge on small objects found in environmental fieldwork - or those released from acoustic levitation in the lab - using a new design of Faraday cup which encloses the sensitive electronics. doi.org/10.1016/j.elst…

It's truly such an honour to be awarded the prize for best PhD thesis in the Faculty of Life Sciences @BristolUni for 2024. Thank you so much to my supervisor Daniel, his lab group, and my cohort of friends who helped me along the way! (and my examiners!)

Just arrived in the field after the best conference I've ever been to. Thank you so much everyone who came to my talk - so many exciting ideas have spawned from the conversations! I was especially honoured to have had a few people write haikus about my work! #ISBE2024 @ISBE2024

This must be a good omen for the start of fieldwork right? The southern lights, aurora australis, along the great ocean road on our first night here

@DrRossPiper I would be remiss if I didn't mention electroreception!

It was a pleasure chatting to @kensycoop for @ManyMindsPod about all things electric ecology. Give it a listen, I highly recommend their other episodes too!
Many Minds podcast@ManyMindsPod

New episode!! 📣📣 A conversation w/ @SamJakeEngland about electroreception and "electric ecology." Our world is buzzing with electricity—it forms a key part of the sensoria and ecologies of many animals. Scientists are starting to take note. Listen: disi.org/electric-ecolo…

@EntsocAmerica I believe these are actually stingless bees, probably Tetragonisca angustula :)
