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!
