Investigating bee decline using wing power   

Dr Paul Cross. School of the Environment, Natural Resources and Geography. Bangor University.

Bit of info: Paul is keen about bees. He keeps 15 colonies on Anglesey and runs the Bangor University apiary which is used for teaching, as well as a wide range of research purposes. In his talk, Paul will explain the development of the first self-sustained radio-tracking device – small enough to be attached to a bees’ thorax – and the information this will provide to help further understand the global decline in honey bee populations.

Doors open 6.30pm.  ENTRY IS FREE.  A bowl of hearty homemade soup, chunk of Welsh Cheddar and a slice of Artisan bread will be available for £5.  The bar will be open for drinks.

Arrive early if you’d like a seat!
