A Canadian research team focused on characterizing and restoring microbial health in honeybees🐝🦠🧬🇨🇦 @UofG @WesternU sciences @UofG_FfT @TIPS_SPIIE funded
Dr. Emma Allen-Vercoe’s microbiome research, featured at yesterday’s Council of Ontario Universities event, shows how #UofG is advancing life sciences by uncovering how microbes influence health and resilience across species, from humans to honeybees.
The agri-food sector is key to Canada’s economic future. As we tackle global challenges like food insecurity, climate change, and sustainable productivity, innovation is essential.

Why do bees bite flowers when buzz pollinating? Here, with @CharlieZoology and the @HFSP -funded team we show that biting helps bees to increase the amount of shaking applied to flowers, potentially releasing more pollen. Free access until 5 Oct! https://t.co/QllaZPFvr6
