NEWS: Lars Chittka, Ph.D., professor of sensory and behavioural ecology at Queen Mary University of London, has been selected to deliver the Founders' Memorial Award Lecture at Entomology 2024. Chittka will recount the pioneering accomplishments of Charles Henry Turner, Ph.D. (1867-1923), a Black entomologist whose discoveries on insect sensory systems, learning, personality, and intelligence were a century ahead of their time. #EntSoc24 #entomology #insects MORE: https://entsoc.org/news/press-releases/lars-chittka-2024-founders-memorial-lecture
