Metamorphosis: how insects are changing the world

Join Nick Acheson as he chats to Erica McAlister and Adrian Washbourne to explore how minibeasts are leading extraordinary discoveries from robotics to genetics to forensics, transforming our knowledge of agriculture, medicine, aerospace, artificial intelligence, biodiversity, and ourselves. Inspired by their radio 4 series, Metamorphosis, Erica and Adrian will reveal the wonder of insects, the historical figures who have made great breakthroughs in understanding them, and the increasingly vital role they play in ensuring life, as we know it, continues.
A book signing will follow the talk.
