Additional Information
You’re Invited to Vanessa Bentley’s PhD Exit Seminar

Join us for an engaging presentation by Vanessa Bentley, PhD candidate, as she discusses her research on the role of methyl farnesoate in crustacean molting. In her seminar, Vanessa will explore how this hormone influences growth and development in crustaceans, shedding light on its broader implications in arthropod endocrinology.

Vanessa’s work examines the regulatory mechanisms governing molting, with a focus on how methyl farnesoate interacts with key physiological processes. Her findings contribute to a deeper understanding of crustacean biology and may have applications in aquaculture and fisheries management.

Why Attend?
  • Gain insight into hormonal regulation in crustaceans
  • Learn about the role of methyl farnesoate in growth and development
  • Engage with research that bridges endocrinology and marine biology

Date: Monday, February 24
Time: 9:00 AM
