Yesterday I had the pleasure of presenting our research on phasmid eggs at the international stick insect meeting organized at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences. A big thanks to the organizers for the opportunity and creating such an amazing event!

This issue makes me particularly happy. It not only opens the 50th volume of Physiological #Entomology, but also contains an editorial highlighting the key questions #PhysEnt covers in its mission. It is a great start-up for the 99th year after the first issue and for the 100th anniversary next year
