He is also a University Teaching Officer in the Department of Zoology\, Curator of Insects in the University Museum of Zoology and a Fellow at Clare College\, Cambridge.  \n\n\n\nHis work includes investigating biodiversity of oil palm plantations in Sumatra\, Indonesia on the BEFTA programme\, the SAFE Project in Sabah\, Malaysia that experimentally investigates the impact of rainforest fragmentation and collaborating with the Bedfordshire\, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire Wildlife Trust in the UK\, investigating insect diversity and management on chalk grassland reserves. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nManaging tropical ecosystems for insect biodiversity – Edgar Turner\n\n\n\nTropical ecosystems contain an astonishing variety of life\, but are increasingly threatened\, particularly by logging\, agricultural expansion\, and the pervasive impacts of climate change. In this talk I will explore our ongoing work with collaborators in Malaysia and Indonesia investigating some of the impacts of forest logging and conversion to oil palm on insects\, but also ways that landscapes can be managed to maintain and even increase insect biodiversity. \n\n\n\nEd is interested in insect ecology and conservation\, with research projects based in both the UK and Southeast Asia. His research focusses on ways that human-modified landscapes can be managed to benefit biodiversity and healthy-functioning ecosystems\, while still allowing other uses. With collaborators from universities\, NGOs and the oil palm industry\, Ed has studied the impacts of tropical agricultural expansion in Southeast Asia\, particularly on insects\, for about 20 years. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Zoology\, and Curator of Insects in the University Museum of Zoology\, University of Cambridge.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind out about the history of the Verrall Lecture.\n\n\n\nKnow young people interested in entomology? Consider bringing them to the Young Verrall Lecture on March 4th where Edgar simplifies his talk for younger audiences. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDirections to the Flett Lecture theatre: \n\n\n\nEnter the NHM via the Exhibition road entrance\, go up three floors to the Flett lecture theatre which is on the left hand side as you enter\, a lift is available. \n\n\n\nFloor 1 on the RH side of the map here: \n\n\n\nNHM-Map-March-2022Download\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote – We do not provide recordings of events or presentations as standard\, unless otherwise stated.\n\n\n\nThis is to encourage in-person participation and foster the social and networking environment of like-minded researchers and enthusiasts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTurn up to the venue in-person\, or register to watch online.\n\n\n\nThe Verrall is open to people visiting NHM on the day.

He is also a University Teaching Officer in the Department of Zoology\, Curator of Insects in the University Museum of Zoology and a Fellow at Clare College\, Cambridge.  \n\n\n\nHis work includes investigating biodiversity of oil palm plantations in Sumatra\, Indonesia on the BEFTA programme\, the SAFE Project in Sabah\, Malaysia that experimentally investigates the impact of rainforest fragmentation and collaborating with the Bedfordshire\, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire Wildlife Trust in the UK\, investigating insect diversity and management on chalk grassland reserves. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nInsects are an astonishingly diverse group of animals\, found in nearly every ecosystem on land\, and crucial for a host of ecosystem processes\, including pollination\, decomposition\, and being food for many other larger species. Unfortunately\, like many other groups\, insect numbers are in decline. In this talk\, Ed will explore some of the threats to insect diversity and work that his group and collaborators are carrying out to reduce insect losses in the UK\, Malaysia and Indonesia. \n\n\n\nEd is interested in insect ecology and conservation\, with research projects based in both the UK and Southeast Asia. His research focusses on ways that landscapes can be managed to benefit biodiversity and healthy-functioning ecosystems\, while still allowing other uses. \n\n\n\n \nConserving insect biodiversity – Ed Turner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind out about the history of the Verrall Lecture.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick here to register on EventBrite – It’s free!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote – We do not provide recordings of events or presentations as standard\, unless otherwise stated.\n\n\n\nThis is to encourage in-person participation and foster the social and networking environment of like-minded researchers and enthusiasts. \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\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Royal Entomological Society frequently hosts and advertises UK and international events year-round for people of all stages of interest and career.\n\n\n\nBecoming a member entitles you to free or discounted access to the majority of events.\n\n\n\n\nBecome a RES Member
