Greg Pask is an insect neurobiologist at Middlebury College studying how insects use smell to communicate with each other. In particular, his research focuses on using a range of techniques in molecular biology, genetics, electrophysiology and animal behaviour to understand the mechanisms by which ants detect social cues and how this is necessary for maintaining successful ant colonies.  TIMESTAMPS (00:35) – Superorganisms (17:25) – Division of labour in ant colonies (22:14) – How ants communicate (31:47) – Studying ants in the lab (50:42) – How much we know about ant neurobiology (53:26) – Automated recording of ant behaviour (1:02:51) – Other insects (1:04:53) – Greg’s scientific journey (1:10:23) – Favourite part about doing science (1:15:34) – Beauty of evolution (1:17:47) Advice for young scientists

#23 – Greg Pask: Decoding the chemical language of ants

Hi everyone and welcome to the Smell Podcast, I’m your host, Katie Boateng. This week, join me in listening to an episode with Dr. Greg Pask, an insect neurobiologist. His bio on the Middlebury College website states that he is “interested in understanding the powerful sense of smell insects use to locate food, find mates, and communicate with others.” Greg is a professor there and the college is located in Vermont. We had a great conversation about how insects use their sense of smell to navigate the world, his work as a professor, and much more.

Episode 74 - An Interview with Dr. Greg Pask, Insect Neurobiologist 

Howdy bug lovers! Today we are excited to have Dr. Greg Pask on the show. Greg is an expert in insect olfaction, how they smell the world. Smell plays a huge role in an insect's life and Greg studies the ways their sensory organs work and how insects use them in a smelly world. It's an important part of insect anatomy and of entomology history. So tune in to hear all about sensilla, pheromones, and how we can manipulate insects with their odors!Want to learn more about insect smell?https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/when-did-insects-learn-to-smell/https://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/14/science/insects-dont-need-noses-to-sense-a-stench.htmlQuestions?
