Entomology, the study of insects, brings together bug enthusiasts from all walks of life. Since bugs are all around us, studying them is a great way to get involved in science! Ted Fridirici is a great example of this. As a citizen scientist and dear friend of the Museum, his love of bugs has led to adventurous pursuits and sparked dreams of a bug-focused podcast. On this week’s episode of Bug Note, he’s here to chat all about it. Host Daniel Potter also welcomes NHMU’s Invertebrate Collections Manager Christy Bills to the show. Together, Potter, Bills, and Fridirici chat about how loving bugs can lead to exciting and impactful things.
