New pub! Honeybee nests are super symmetrical, the pattern of cell contents is mirrored on either side of the comb. This symmetry 1 is unique to each comb in the nest 2 evolves over time while maintaining symmetry 3 aids in thermoregulation and rearing 4 conserved across Apis🔗⬇️

Thrilled to see our new @SmithBeeLab paper out in @CurrentBiology! Buckle up, this one’s a wild dive into the world of architectural symmetry… cell.com/current-biology/ful…

Form, function, and evolutionary origins of architectural symmetry in honey bee nests

Smith et al. show that honey bees stockpile their nests symmetrically on either side of the double-sided comb, revealing architectural symmetry in the extended phenotype. This symmetry provides the...

Where would honeybees prefer to initiate their nest after they move into a large cavity? A really large cavity, let's say an 8ft tall cavity, with the the entrance at the bottom. Answer the poll then see the data in our latest pub below!
65%Build nest from ceiling
10%Build nest near entrance
24%Somewhere in between

Pleased to share the first paper from my PhD at @OISTedu, showing that #eusociality did not drive the expansions in the number of odorant receptors in #Hymenoptera! 🐜🐝 Big thanks to all my co-authors! @Dorylophile @Jules_For_Fools @Pangapaco Shûhei Yamamoto & @EvanEconomo

New fossil ants, insight into ant faunal turnover, and the persistence of the "platonic ant body plan"! Our paper on the youngest-yet stem ants from the Cretaceous, preserved in ~77 Ma North Carolina amber, is now out in Current Biology doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2024.0…

The study by Bailey @csbailey128 and colleagues @SmithBeeLab @AztecaCecropia shows that the #nest of a #superorganism is not static, but alterations happen through constant #interaction of #workers with the structure. Link: rdcu.be/dteY7 @IUSSI_NAS @secbras @IUSSI_NWES

Incredibly thankful for the evolution and morphology workshop hosted by @OISTedu and for getting to spend a week in Japan with some of the coolest people :)

Excited to announce my first paper! I looked at how honeybees continuously reduce their comb area after nest expansion & the fine-scale detailing that goes into it. Very thankful for everyone at the Smith Bee Lab, and excited to share some fun results! link.springer.com/article/10…

We're so excited to have you! Claire's going to be doing some really cool work on eusocial shrimp as part of our new NSF grant!

I'm really proud of this work published today in Proc B with @SmithBeeLab & @ben_koger on the importance of the 3D nest structure and building strategies in developing honeybee colonies doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2022.25… We observe, manipulate, and model 3D nest construction - see below.

Congrats to Claire Bailey (@csbailey128) on receiving the DBS Outstanding Undergraduate Research Award! ps. Claire, I'm still mad that the local beekeeping club asked you to give a research talk before they asked me.
