Science communication is an important aspect of being a scientist, conveying our knowledge and understanding to the larger public to generate impact and awareness. Not only for the academic world, but especially so for the general public. I have given lectures and appearances on a range of subjects:

- Evolutionary biology, from Darwin to DNA

- Fundamental ecology

- Biodiversity and climate change

- Sustanainable development 

- Theoretical evolutionary ecology
