America field trip 2017

We're back from our field trip out to look at Holcocephala fusca in Pennsylvania in the US! Paloma, Sam, Jack, Sergio and Mary went out for five+ weeks for the end of the fusca season. We recorded some really interesting behaviour and got a lot of data from the electrophysiology rig that we took out with us, as well as getting a really fun insight into American life! Watching the eclipse through reflections off mirrors used for flies was particularly memorable. A very short stopover in Iceland also netted us a trip round the geysers and Gulfoss, for a nice change of pace! Hopefully over the rest of the year we can get into all the data we collected and analyse it into something truly exciting!
