Dr Amoret Whitaker: Solving Murders Using Insects 🪲

Ever heard of a forensic entomologist?

“The later stages, you get lots of different types of beetles, so things like dermestid beetles that like the body when it's dry and chewy. They don't like it when it's fresh.”

Imagine you’ve just been murdered. Already a terrible day. Then the flies arrive, followed by beetles and other creepy crawlies, all making themselves at home on your remains.

Horrifying? Absolutely. But those insects could hold the clues that catch your killer.

Join us for an evening with Dr Amoret Whitaker, a forensic entomologist who uses her knowledge of insects to help police investigate deaths and crime scenes. We’ll discover what these tiny witnesses can reveal and how they help piece together a timeline. 

Trust us when we say that you'll leave buzzing with with creepy and horrifying information.
