John Hafernik is a professor of biology at San Francisco State University where he teaches entomology, evolution and ecology courses. He is also president of the California Academy of Sciences. He studies the evolution, behavior and conservation biology of insects. Recently, he discovered a new parasite of honey bees, the phorid fly Apocephalus borealis (AKA the Zombie Fly). As a follow up, he and his colleagues created a new citizen science project, ZomBee Watch to determine where in North America the Zombie Fly is parasitizing honey bees.
