This year's IBRO World Congress of Neurosciences has a sweet treat in store - one of the plenary speakers is noted researcher Professor Mandyam Srinivasan, winner of the 2006 Prime Minister's Prize for Science. He will explain how the study of the common honeybee is revolutionising the fields of neurobiology and robotics by simply going about their daily routine. (editor abstract)
