Event Description

Remember how a specific scent, like rain or a blooming flower, can evoke strong emotions or memories? This illustrates how crucial our sense of smell is in shaping our perceptions and experiences. Insects share a similar dependency, using their sense of smell to find food, locate mates, navigate to nests, and evade predators.

Biologist Chinmayee L. Mukunda invites you to explore the fascinating world of insect olfaction. In this lecture, discover how these remarkable creatures process complex odour mixtures with extraordinary efficiency and learn about the intricate ways they navigate their environments.

Join us to unravel the mysteries of how insects rely on their sense of smell to thrive in diverse habitats.
