Day 2 of #EntSoc26 comes to an end! 🦗🌈 A full day of outstanding student presentations showcasing the incredible talent in our society! This year, I had the honour of evaluating some of them for the first time. What a tough job! 😅 Our own Joshua presented his research in the student competition (we’ll find out tomorrow if we’re bringing an award home! 🤞🏆), and Brianne, another outstanding student from our LeafHope project supervised by Sean Prager, also presented her exciting research! Another highlight was a wonderful meeting with Elaine, a pioneer of Empoasca and leafhopper research in North America, and arguably one of the pioneers of EPG research on the continent! And what better way to end the day than the Rainbow Mixer! 🌈🏳️‍🌈 A must-attend event and, I dare say, one of the highlights of this conference for the past eight years! Incredible performances by talented local artists and members of our own society! What an incredible conference, and what an amazing scientific community to be part of! ❤️ #EntSoc26 #Entomology2026 #RainbowMixer @EntsocAmerica @LeafHopeCan @FRQ_NT @RqradQc @NSERC_CRSNG 🙏
