SUMMARY:Online talk February 2023 - May Berenbaum
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Entomological Society organises insect science conferences and events around the UK and the world for people at all stages of career and interest.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to discounted (and sometimes free) access to the majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Royal Entomological Society’s online talk series\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese online meetings take place on the first Wednesday of the month from 19.30 to 20.45 (UK time).  \n\n\n\nThere will also be an opportunity to hear some exciting updates about the Society and its activities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease note: this talk will start one hour earlier than usual at 18.30 UK\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: May Berenbaum\n\n\n\nProfessor of Entomology \n\n\n\nUniversity of Illinois \n\n\n\n\n\nWhy honey bees make honey\n\n\n\n“The only reason for being a bee is to make honey. And the only reason for making honey is so I can eat it.”  Among the more famous A.A.Milne quotes from Winnie the Pooh\n\n\n\n\n\nAs it happens\, May has been working on why bees make honey (with some of the reasons described in her annual review “Honey as a functional food for Apis mellifera“\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor May Roberta Berenbaum is a professor of entomology at the University of Illinois and IGB faculty member. Her research focuses on chemical interactions between herbivorous insects and their host plants\, and the implications of these interactions on the organization of natural communities and the evolution of species. \n\n\n\nIn 2014\, she was awarded the National Medal of Science\, the nation’s highest honour for achievement and leadership in advancing the fields of science and technology\, according to an announcement from the White House Press Office. \n\n\n\nShe also created the Insect Fear Film Festival. The festival engages and entertains hundreds of viewers each year with feature-length films and shorts\, commentary on the films\, an insect petting zoo and an insect art contest. \n\n\n\nBerenbaum graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in biology from Yale University in 1975. She earned a Ph.D. in ecology and evolutionary biology from Cornell University in 1980. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: All attendees\, including members\, must register below to receive the link to attend the talk.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers need to login to register for free
