We found that virus infections in queen bees inhibits egg laying, shrinks ovaries, and predicts supersedure. Looking forward to talking about this research at ABRC this week, along with some new stuff about viruses & queen pheromones! https://t.co/FgEBUq3Tcj
My foray outside the world of honey bees continues. Our new paper is out, comparing proteomes across reproductive stage transitions of ant, honey bee, and bumble bee queens.

That horrifying moment when you spot a typo in that graphical abstract you made hastily at the end and you wish even harder that graphical abstracts were not a thing https://t.co/MmSyDQqDj8
Happy to see our new paper on climatic predictors of honey bee pathogens out in the world in @PLOSClimate.
We used a dataset of hundreds of samples from across Canada (project @BeeCsi) to see how temp, precip, and wind predict pathogen abundance https://t.co/1LaU7pvvLK
Happy to see this getting some attention. Last spring, I saw one location in the Lower Mainland with so many queens emerging it was hard not to step on them. It was insane. https://t.co/jGIgYJNf2U
