Wolbachia, the wonderwoman of bacteria, could be the key to controlling many tropical diseases like malaria, dengue, zika and yellow fever in the future. It is a protective microbe found in many insects and could be a promising cure for dengue. Join Suzie Ford and I to learn more about it!

Special thanks to the YouTube Space in London, where this episode was shot.

Wolbachia: The Bacteria That Could Change Everything 🌏

Is Animal Vision 20/20?

$How Monogamy Made Superorganisms Evolve How did eusociality evolve? How did bee colonies undergo evolution to become superorganisms? Today, with expert Professor Boomsma I explore how lifetime monogamy led facultative eusocial animals to evolve into superorganisms. This evolution is the latest out of what are known as the Major Evolutionary Transitions. Obligate eusociality evolved four times, in the Hymenoptera (bees, wasps and ants), and in the higher termites, but facultative eusociality is a lot more common. What makes the transition from solitary bees to superorganism evolve? Todays video is a collaboration with Stated Clearly, who made a fantastic video all about the other evolutionary transitions: http://youtube.com/StatedClearly My video on inclusive fitness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCrU94U997s&ab_channel=DrawCuriosity Blogpost on inclusive fitness: http://bit.ly/InclusiveFitness Read Prof. Boomsmas paper here: Lifetime monogamy and the evolution of eusociality https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2781870/ Read the full blogpost here: ➢ [EN] {The blogpost will be available in less than 24 hours on drawcuriosity.com} ➢ [SP] {El blogpost estará disponible en menos de 24 horas en drawcuriosity.com} Inés Dawson is a PhD student and animal flight scientist at the University of Oxford.

What Is Curiosity?

$Draw Curiosity 2016 in Review - Thank You! Happy New Year and thanks for an amazing 2016! Sure, globally 2016 hasnt been great, but from the perspective of this little project on the internet, it couldnt have gone better. This video is quite self-indulgent, but I wanted to give a short history of the origin of this project, a summary of 2016 for Draw Curiosity, lots and lots and lots of thank yous and what is to come in 2017! Apologies for the audio quality - on the one hand, I dont have the best set up at home (no lights and depending on where you are, it can be noisier), but I also had a dreadful cold which had me bedridden for a few days, so I didnt get a chance to find a better location to shoot either because I was too ill. 2017 - to reiterate: The plan is to front load as much work as possible. Ill be handing in my PhD at the end of the year, so Ill be inactive from around August onwards - but if I have prepared episodes, those will go up every couple of weeks to keep me covered. At the front of the year Ive got: ➢ 3-5 episodes shot at the YouTube Space at the end of last year ➢ 5 science travel vlogs still unedited ➢ 1 sponsored video ➢ Other content and collaborations Im planning ➢ A trip to CERN Im potentially embarking on ➢ VidCon Amsterdam in April ➢ Potentially a few other unconfirmed things ➢ 12-15 episodes to be created over Summer to cover me whilst writing up ➢ Dec 2017 - hopefully, PhD handed in to become Dr. in early 2018!! :) Read the full blogpost here: ➢ [EN] {The blogpost will be available in less than 24 hours on drawcuriosity.com} ➢ [SP] {El blogpost estará disponible en menos de 24 horas en drawcuriosity.com} Inés Dawson is a PhD student and animal flight scientist at the University of Oxford.

$Why Cuttlefish Pupils Are W-Shaped Cephalopod vision has always been a mystery to scientists. In spite of being colourblind, their behaviour shows they are able to distinguish colour, and this is due to the shape of their pupils. These findings were made by Stubbs & Stubbs, 2015, who discovered that the U or W-shaped pupil, gave cuttlefish, octopus and squid eyes a unique way of diffracting light and detecting colour. This is a video-adapted version of my winning talk in the FameLab Heats 2016 in Oxford, and content for #CephalopodWeek.
