Ep. 4: Dr. Astri Wayadande: Electropenetrography
from Talking Bugs · host Erfan Vafaie
Dr. Astri Wayadande is known for her work in our understanding of insect feeding. Using a technique referred to as electrical penetration graph or electropenetrography, sucking insects are integrated into a low-voltage circuit. Upon feeding, the insect completes the circuit and different electrical signal patterns indicate different types of feeding behavior.Watch the full interview at: https://youtu.be/1DiA9pUOr-QResearch article:Wayadande, A.C., E.A.
