Information

Conducts research on continuous monitoring of various parameters, including weight, temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration, in honey bee colonies, and linking those data with bee colony growth and activity. I am currently involved in investigating the effects of factors such as queenline and cold storage on colony behavior, thermoregulation, CO2 management, foraging activity and brood production.
