Royal Entomological Society

The Royal Entomological Society is devoted to the understanding and development of insect science. It supports international collaboration, research and publication. It aims to show every person how remarkable and valuable insects are and want to enrich the world with insect science. 

Elsevier Insect Science journals

Elsevier is a leading global publisher with an extensive portfolio in Insect Science, offering cutting-edge research through top-tier journals and books. Committed to advancing entomological knowledge, Elsevier provides researchers and practitioners with high-quality, peer-reviewed content that drives innovation and understanding in the field.

Loligo® Systems

Since 2002 we have offered unique scientific equipment for measuring behavior, respiration, or swimming performance in animals ranging from a single egg or embryo to large adult organisms. Main products are:

  1. High-throughput well plate respirometry systems for measuring oxygen consumption rates in adult terrestrial insects (e.g., Drosophila, bees, flies, mosquitos, or aquatic insect  larvae, eggs, or embryos
  2. Video tracking and behavior analysis software/hardware for analyzing individual insect behavior even in swarms or groups
  3. Swim flumes for testing swimming performance or behavior in aquatic animals. Scientists in more than 80 countries have published over 2,500 peer-reviewed papers referring to the use of Loligo® equipment in research fields like entomology, neuroscience, ethology, conservation physiology, bioenergetics, ecotoxicology, etc.

We offer customized solutions as well as free scientific advice and support, and continue to support science by sponsoring meetings, symposia, travel grants, and student prizes.

Pensoft

Founded in 1992 “by scientists, for scientists”, Pensoft is an independent, open-access scholarly publisher and technology provider best known for publishing more than 80 academic journals, including 20+ titles focused on entomology, such as ZooKeys, Biodiversity Data Journal, Nature Conservation, One Ecosystem, Neobiota, Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift, and others. Ever since becoming the first to introduce semantic enrichments and hyperlinks within a scientific article in the field of biodiversity in 2010, Pensoft has been developing various tools and workflows to enhance data findability, accessibility, discoverability, and interoperability.

Over the past 20 years, Pensoft has participated in 60+ international projects – mostly in the fields of biodiversity, ecology, sustainability and technological innovation – as a leader in science communication, web development, scholarly publishing and data & knowledge management.

PyroScience GmbH

PyroScience offers state-of-the-art opto-chemical sensor solutions underpinned by a team of in-house specialists with scientific backgrounds. Our innovative, user-friendly, and compact sensor systems are designed for the analysis of key analytes in a variety of research settings. This focus is accompanied by a commitment to ongoing innovation and the continuous development of new sensor solutions.

PyroScience offers a wide range of sensors for studying animal ecophysiology, including optical oxygen, pH, and temperature sensors, ranging from fast-responding microsensors, miniprobes to smart contactless sensors for application in respiration rate measurements and many more. These sensors can be used in combination with compact stand-alone devices (FireSting-GO2), PC-operated lab systems (FireSting-O2/-PRO), or underwater fiber-optic devices (AquapHOx loggers and transmitters). Now we also offer a 96-channel reader FirePlate-O2 for use with 96-well plates with integrated oxygen sensors, making it ideal for small-scale respiration rate measurements. Find the best sensor solution for your application in entomology.

Our distributer in France (Bionef) will be present at the conference with an exhibition stand where attendees will have the opportunity to engage with PyroScience products through hands-on experience. Happy to meet you there!
