The evolution of blue and green shell colour | The Royal Society
Ғылым және технология
This event is part of the Royal Society's Summer Science Exhibition 2024.
Discover the fascinating world of shell colours and the rarity of blue and green shells. Dr Abigail Ingram will explore why these colours have rarely evolved, not only in shells but also across the animal kingdom.
Attendees will have the exclusive chance to closely examine a diverse range of specimens, offering a rare opportunity to appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of these shells firsthand.
Abigail is a biologist with expertise in the functional morphology of marine and terrestrial invertebrates using electron microscopy and spectrophotometry. After working as a fish ecologist at the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH), Abigail gained a place at the University of Oxford to do her PhD in the Department of Zoology.
Dr Abigail Ingram is a Royal Society Daphne Jackson Fellow at the Natural History Museum, London in the Invertebrates Division of the Life Sciences Department.
The Royal Society is a Fellowship of many of the world's most eminent scientists and is the oldest scientific academy in continuous existence.

Terrific talk marred by two easily fixed video editing flaws. 1) Introductions don't begin until 6:44 in. The preceding six minutes are dead air. 2) The talk and its subtitles are not synchronized with the subtitles lagging talk by about five seconds. One reason for this sloppiness is that the people responsible were overwhelmed with the sheer quantity of videos to upload following the RS summer events and didn't care to curate them. Still and all...
Unfortunately, Many of the #SummerScience videos on KZread need significant trimming of the lead-in for later consumption, as per the other comment on this one. I've seen up to 15 minutes, which might be acceptable when waiting for a live presentation, but is a waste of KZread storage and will put off many of the target audience.
