Giving Beekeeping Guidance by cOmputatiOnal-assisted Decision making

2020 PoshBee Annual Meeting

The 2020 Annual Meeting of PoshBee's full project assembly will take place from 14-16 January in Marsille, France.

About PoshBee:

PoshBee aims to support healthy bee populations, sustainable beekeeping and pollination across Europe. Integrating the knowledge and experience of academics, beekeepers and farmers, PoshBee will:

• provide the first pan-European quantification of the exposure hazard of chemicals to managed and wild bees;
• determine how chemicals alone, in mixtures, and in combination with pathogens and nutrition, affect bee health, and;
• meet the need for monitoring tools, novel screening protocols, and practice- and policy-relevant research outputs to local, national, European, and global stakeholders.

B-GOOD First General Assembly Meeting

More details to follow soon.

14th Symposium on the Hazards of Pesticides to Bees

Our Eva has been before to this conference and she thought it very good. It pretty much hits all of the PoshBee buttons, so perhaps we should think of getting involved in a more structured manner. These are the different streams for abstract submission:

1. Risk assessment/Risk management

2. Honeybee Brood Testing

3. Laboratory/Semi-field/Field Testing

4. Non-Apis bee Testing

5. Monitoring

6. Testing of Micro-organisms (microbial pesticides)
