I’ve often found myself standing in the Metro or waiting in a queue and I’m unable to relax or concentrate on my own thoughts because I’m bombarded by the noise of other people around me talking. Listening, I find that the conversations are utterly banal and after enduring several minutes of them, I begin to wonder how people have so much to say about nothing. In this regard, humans must surely be the noisiest animals. It seems that since we’ve developed the amazing ability of spoken language, we must exercise it at all opportunities, communicating even when there is seemingly no message worth delivering.

Recently an article was published which stemmed from my primary research project for my MSc degree at Leiden University in the Netherlands. In it, we uncovered how several different traits of the African butterfly Bicyclus anynana vary with the temperature at which they develop and how these correlate with developmental hormonal changes.
