Results and Impact | This was the third time I have co-organized a workshop on the Mechanisms of Insect Nutritional Homeostasis with Prof Michael Pankratz at the University of Bonn. This workshop involves research scientists working on nutrition from all over the world. It has had an impact on the group of scientists who work on insect nutrition, as it is the only workshop/conference of its kind. We have developed a strong and supportive community of people. |
