Research Project: The Impact of Colour and Olfactory Features of Artificial Flowers on Their Attraction to Bumble Bees

My research project looked at how bumble bees could be attracted to artificial flowers, to greater understand the specific factors that attract bumble bees to natural ones. I specifically focused on the differences between males and females and the behaviours exhibited by each.

Hi, I'm Hannah and i'm a Biological Sciences student at Durham University.

My research project was focused on exploring the neuroscience of bumble bees and their visual and olfactory attraction to flowers, and identifying differences between sex and species.

My LiA is with Make_Sense Americas and is a collaboration with a start-up recycling plant, processing hard to recycle materials and trying to achieve a more circular economy.

During my free time I love reading, improving my level of Spanish and learning how to code.
