Long before humans built machines, evolution shaped nervous systems that could navigate darkness, coordinate without leaders, and control complex movement with remarkable efficiency. In this talk, I’ll explore how scientists and engineers learn from non-human nervous systems - from ants and bees and bats and octopuses - to inspire modern technologies. By looking beyond our own brains, we’ll see how different kinds of minds solve problems in surprising ways, and how these biological strategies are quietly shaping the tools we use every day.

Although we are only now coming to appreciate how, the effects of these changes have been felt by all living creatures for more than a century. In this talk, I will share three hot topics of research on how climate change affects us and the ecosystem we are embedded in. First, I will share how global warming is making us hotheaded, with potentially disastrous consequences for our society. Second, I will discuss how climate change is helping spread old diseases to new areas, and also leading to the emergence of never-before-seen pathogens. And finally, I’ll try to switch from doom to mood by telling you about how our jellyfish and cephalopod cousins might be coping with climate change. Come prepared to learn something new, “weather” you like it or not. About the Speaker Aalok Varma is a biologist and avid science communicator.
