🐝NEW RESEARCH🐝

Are bumblebees impacted by low doses of #glyphosate?

Are there differences in exposure to glyphosate alone and formulations like those used in #agriculture, gardens, and parks?

@DaraStanley @aoreilly28 @ucdagfood @_Rosemount @UCDEarth @SUSPOLL_ire Huge congrats @aoreilly28

[Lynn Dicks @LynnDicks]

So important! Fundamental discoveries takes a long time. Applications that could be huge for humanity are often not apparent at the start. If we only fund applied science, we will discover less. This is as relevant to ecology & conservation as it is to biotechnology.

How strong is the evidence for pain in insects? The idea has often been dismissed, but an emerging new picture suggests it should now be taken very seriously. We've just released a full review of all the current evidence (free to read here) (1/4): https://t.co/P9jCrpt64W

[Ed Straw @EdStrawBio]

Good example of why it's so important that we clearly communicate what pesticides we're actually testing. The paper cited tested a product containing glyphosate and a range of co-formulants, either could be driving the effect. Yet it's being used to support a ban on glyphosate.

[British Ecological Society @BritishEcolSoc]

You've only got a few more days to submit an abstract for the Ecology and Evolution Ireland conference!

Submit now to join @JCSvenning, @JenniferMcElwa3, @OwenPetchey & everyone at @irish_ecology in Dublin this January!
