The brains of bees who follow a dance have a similar molecular signature to the dancers they followed! 🐝🧠🧬 Extremely excited to see our research published in #ProcB today: here 👉🏽 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… with @ElliLeadbeater1, @yannick__ , @WaspWoman, @RSocPublishing

Anapids are tiny spiders that look like bald angry men.

This is what the "spores" look like. They are rather large. I have no idea what this stuff is 😂

Update on the weird fungus. It was plated up and took a few weeks, but today I noticed it's finally produced new "spores". Next step, can we infect the ants and replicate the same biting phenotype?

Weird observation...these ants look like they're doing the biting death grip seen in "zombie" ants and they have an unusual, globular like fungus growth on them. @CharissaB/@another_ant_guy?

Really pleased to see our review on best practices for insect olfactometer experiments published today! This has been three years in the making and wouldn't have been completed without major contributions from @ipm_tom , @EdHarris9000 and @benclunie. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ee…

Mating normally takes place on the wing and the male dies shortly after. This pair thought my arm was a good spot though...

Another mating flight to tonight! Once fertilised, ant queens fall to the ground and snap off their wings before searching for a potential nest site 🐜

Interested in #collectivebehaviour, #decisionmaking, and #ants? Check out my first #PhD paper, out today in @PNASNews! @ChrisRReid1, @sjmgarnier, Chris Lustri, @MarineMcnab, and I studied how colonies of ants make decisions when facing an uncertain task pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Almost 12 years ago a I started my final year research project with @sphaerularia collecting ant queens...tonight I'm back at it again! Must've collected a good 300-400!

@CharissaB @another_ant_guy Yeah, I noticed it today when feeding the colony. Some of them has been dismantled by other ants by the looks of things. I have put the dish into a moist petri to see what grows! I may send you a PM about next steps if it does...
