In the late s a major plague of the desert locust in Africa provided the incentive to begin an investigation into the biology of locust swarming, which has led to an understanding of locust swarming that links chemical events in the brains of individual insects to landscape-scale mass migration. When did you become a biologist?.
I have provided expert interviews (e.g. BBC News, BBC Countryfile, BBC Radio 4, New Scientist), given public lectures (e.g. TEDx (twice), Edinburgh Filmhouse, Southbank Centre), organised ecotourism events (e.g. Sea & Learn on Saba), and led biodiversity initiatives in secondary and primary schools.
