Dear all,
you’ll have noticed from our webpage, that we need to update our group picture, since it was last taken in 2010!
We will be heading to the Western Park this Tuesday after the lab group talks. Please meet outside of B52 at 11am. Please make every effort to be there, as we will not be able to photoshop you in!

This applies to members of staff, students and visitors of Terry, Roger, Jon, Gareth, Kai and Patrik – so please do come along.
Please cross your fingers for some sunshine!!!

Hi all!
A reminder that we have a lab meeting on Tuesday, 10am in B52.
We’ll hear from Jen and Tim about the birds and the bugs:
Timothy Farkas: Community-wide consequences of adaptive camouflage in the stick insect Timema cristinae
Jenny Kaden: Sorting the Sociable weavers of Benfontein
We look forward to two great talks and hopefully some cake 
See you there! Please encourage any new lab members and visitors to come along!!!

Welcome to our new visitors Lilly Herridge working on dance flies from Stirling and Hayley King from Warwick working on badgers.
We are looking for a house (and cat) sitter from mid-April to the end of August (rent free). If you fancy living in luxury for the summer, in the heart of the Peak District (but with excellent transport links to Sheffield and the Uni), please contact me to discuss.

- It looks really good, with an excellent line-up
- It is free to GenSoc members (those who are selected to participate)
I’m happy to answer any queries
