Kit Prendergast from Curtin University brought a buzz and a colourful costume to the FameLab Australia stage with research that hopes to protect native bees.
She investigates native bees in their natural environments within a ‘biodiversity hot-spot’ in southwest WA. With this research, Kit Prendergast hopes to answer the question of how native bees can be protected. With a central role in ecosystems, protecting bees is more than just a buzzword.
