BONUS EPISODE! How Ticks Use Electricity against YOU!

On the third episode of Honest Discussions we speak with Dr. Sam England, a bright up and coming post-doctoral fellow now working at the Museum of Natural History in Berlin. Sam's work on electroreception in ticks sheds a bright light on how nature can exploit the electric fields surrounding mammals to help them hitch a ride on their food source. We also discuss other unique types of electroreception in animals. HIs work has been featured in many major media outlets and can be read here.
