About the Event

In this talk, Dr. Tom Seeley will look at the zig-zag path of investigation that Karl von Frisch blazed as he deciphered the famous waggle dance of the honeybee.  We will also look at new studies that have recently deepened our understanding of this amazing communication system of the bees.  Q&A will follow the talk.
