Welcome back to the enchanting world of ants! This time, we embark on a journey to unravel the mysteries of how ants adapt to different temperatures. What makes hybrid ants the champions of temperature adaptation? And how does this help them overcome the struggles of climate change? The guest for this episode, Beatriz Portinha, is an expert on this subject. As part of her PhD work, Beatriz got access to the insiders information on lives of mound building ants and their resilient hybrids, which she happily shared with us. Beatriz is a PhD student at the evolutionary genetics lab of the University of Lisbon and SpecIAnt lab at the University of Helsinki. Stay tuned for her future work!
