RESEARCH GROUP
 
The EARWIG group is part of the Team 'Social Evolution and Response to the Environment' (ESORE) at the Insect Biology Research Institut (IRBI), University of Tours, France. Researchers of team ESORE use different insect species (earwigs, termites, hornets, ants, parasitoid wasps) to investigate both the (early) evolution of social life and insects' responses to environmental stresses. More details on the team ESORE can be found here (in French for now).

EQUIPE DE RECHERCHE
 
Le groupe FORFICULE fait parti de l'équipe "Evolution sociale et réponse à l'environnement" (ESORE) à l'Institut de Recherche sur la Biologie de l'Insecte (IRBI) situé à l'université de Tours (France). Les chercheur.e.s de l'équipe ESORE cherchent à mieux comprendre l'évolution de la vie sociale chez les insectes et la réponses des insectes face aux stress environnementaux (polution chimique, changement de température, ...).  Ils travaillent avec différentes espèces d'insectes allant des forficules aux termites, en passant par les frelons, les fourmis et les guêpes parasitoides. Plus de détails sur l'équipe ESORE peuvent être trouvés ici.
