Curious to learn how insects 🪰 can be used as sustainable feed alternatives ?
Join us to learn more on this interesting topic at @Junushoff Wageningen on 28th September.
⭐️ Free entry, no pre-registration required!
🪲 Welke rol spelen insecten in de voedselproductie van de toekomst? Ontdek het 28 sept in @Junushoff! Er is een kookshow en een kinderuniversiteit, waar kinderen alles kunnen vragen aan professoren. Een kaartje is niet nodig! Alle info 👉 https://t.co/tCW08E41X6 @Ouwehand_Zoo
👏 Congratulations Bregje Wertheim! As of 1 Sept, she is the new Chairholder of the Laboratory of #Entomology at WUR. Wertheim will be the successor of Marcel Dicke, who is almost retiring 🪲👉 https://t.co/eKkqfXJ1Sc
Excited to share my first publication since switching fields to vector entomology! 🦟Check out our new opinion paper on how vector-borne microorganisms manipulate their hosts to improve their own spread.

@FliesFacility ‘High density and exposure to EPF resulted in a high PO response (one of many proxies to quantify immune response), which comes with a cost of a longer larval period and reduced body mass.’
On the contrary, isn’t growth compromised on pathogen exposure?
Monday evening 26 February the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) hosts a Dutch spoken symposium on “Insecten in de voedselproductie van de toekomst” featuring several inspiring speakers with different views on the topic! More info, see: https://t.co/oHIxgn3UxJ
We are searching for a new professor to chair the Lab. of Entomology! If you aspire to lead a diverse team of enthusiastic scientists and bring your own research and vision @WUR , there are still 14 days left to apply for this unique position: https://t.co/s2prdmJHHw
With a plenary lecture by @floriantm and a related session on Insect-inspired technology. In addition we wil host a special session on Insect mass rearing (organized by @YAartsma). And space for many other insect-related presentations! #entomology#insects
Join December 15 for the yearly Dutch Entomologyday. Meet fellow entomologists, get updated on the latest findings and/or present your own work! 🐛🐜🦟🪰🐞🦗
#SIP2023 🚂 running off to Vienna for 2024. Thank you for the excellent organisation Bob Harrison & team at University of Maryland ❤️ @JInvertPathol@SocInvPathol
Amazing opening ceremony for #SIP2023. Congratulations to all award winners (including myself, intentional self-promotion!). Looking forward to 4 days of science (and fun!) 🤗 @USDA@JInvertPathol@SocInvPathol
We are hiring a #PhD in my lab! If you love #aphids and studying #plant#molecular mechanisms that affect these fascinating creatures, have a look 👇 https://t.co/dBIxsxCRr8
🎉 We are very proud of entomologist @KarenKloth who heard last week that she is to receive a Vidi grant of @NWONieuws. She will use it to conduct research into aphids on pepper plants, currently a major issue for bell pepper growers.
We interviewed her👉https://t.co/gl7mIMuYeQ
