In this episode, we chatted with Dr. Eric Benbow, a professor of aquatic and decomposition ecology at Michigan State University. His work highlights the broad applications of entomology, with a primary focus on how insects and microbes interact with each other across a variety of settings. More specifically in the ways diseases spread, decomposition, and even the ways that insects can be used as food and livestock feed in Africa!
