Speaker from UK Bayer Crop Sciences

[Bcrazy]

Hi members
Our association has booked Dr. Julian Little who is the UK spokesperson for Bayer Crop sciences and his talk is about Neonnicotinoids and one of his quotes is "The two studies clearly demonstrates that pesticides have an impact on insects in the laboratory. What is important is what happens in real situations" Dr. Little said. Meaning what happens to bees in the wild.
Would any one like to attend this meeting?

Mo - you could do a lot worse than to book Dr. James Cresswell from Exeter University. He is investigating the impacts of neonicotinoids on a number of bee species. Very interesting and balanced perspective on the issues, plus first-hand experience of research methods and the current state of understanding.
