Our lab is focused on pollinator health. Specifically:
- Combining empirical data with network modeling to understand pathogen transmission in complex plant-pollinator networks.
- Evaluating the relative importance of pesticides, pathogens, and other factors on colony performance.
- Understanding how pesticide and pathogen stress influence bee behavior and delivery of pollination service to agriculturally important crops.
