SUMMARY:Lecture: Why are Queens Failing?
DESCRIPTION:Why are Queens Failing?\nwith Jeff Pettis\nAre your queens not living as long as in the past? Do your colonies fail to\nRe-queen themselves after a swarm leaves or when you expect a queenless nuc\nto rear a new queen? Queen problems are on the increase and Jeff will cover\nsome basic queen and colony biology and discuss some of the many things that\ncould be involved in why queens fail.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Queen Management Essentials
DESCRIPTION:Queen Management Essentials\nwith Juliana Rangel\nHow to manage queens successfully including some of the common causes of\nqueen problems. Juliana will show us how to determine whether a queen is\naging appropriately and if her colony is doing well\, or if she is failing and it is\ntime to replace her with a new\, more vigorous queen. Good detective work in\nthe hive will increase our chances of managing productive\, healthy colonies.

SUMMARY:Lecture: "Stay Cool: How We Can Use Honey Bee Thermoregulation To Keep Better Bees"
DESCRIPTION:Chelsea Cook presents “Stay Cool: How We Can Use Honey Bee Thermoregulation To Keep Better Bees”\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nStay Cool: How We Can Use Honey Bee Thermoregulation To Keep Better Bees \nIn this lecture\, Dr. Cook will discuss thermoregulation of bees\, both in the summer and in the winter\, and how beekeepers can use cold storage of honey bees to keep better bees. This lecture was written specifically for beekeepers. \n\n\n\nThis event is kindly sponsored by Bord Bia\, whose purpose is to bring Ireland’s outstanding food\, drink and horticulture to the world\, thus enabling growth and sustainability of producers. \n\n\n\nChelsea Cook is an Assistant Professor in Marquette University\, Wisconsin\, USA. Her research lab at Marquette University studies social behavior\, from genes to the collective\, using honey bees as their model system. \nChelsea is also co-founder and chief science officer at HiveTech Solutions\, a company that develops tools to help beekeepers keep healthier bees. \n  \n\n\n\nChelsea’s recent research has indicates that there are curious bees and single-minded bees – a really fascinating read.

SUMMARY:Lecture: "Viruses: ongoing epizootic threat for our bees"
DESCRIPTION:Robert Paxton presents “Viruses: ongoing epizootic threat for our bees”\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nViruses are arguably the single most important cause for poor bee health and colony loss. Robert will talk on the diverse impacts of viruses on honey bees\, as evidenced by recent literature and his own group’s researches. A particular focus will be on Deformed wing virus\, among the most prevalent viruses worldwide\, and he will also cover potential means of its control. \n\n\n\nThis event is kindly sponsored by Bord Bia\, whose purpose is to bring Ireland’s outstanding food\, drink and horticulture to the world\, thus enabling growth and sustainability of producers. \n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Robert PaxtonChair of General Zoology\, 2010-present \nInstitute for Biology\, Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg\, Germany \nA graduate of Sussex University\, where he undertook a PhD on sex ratios in solitary wasps in 1985\, Robert subsequently held postdoc positions at Cardiff University\, researching bees and pollination\, Uppsala University\, working on bee population genetics\, then the University of Tübingen (Germany)\, researching the genetics of social evolution. In 2003 took up an academic post at Queen’s University Belfast from where\, in 2010\, he moved to the University of Halle (Germany)\, to take up a chair in zoology. His main research areas are: social evolution\, host-parasite relations\, pollination and conservation genetics\, with a taxonomic focus on bees.

SUMMARY:On-Line Lecture with Celia Davis. 'The Roles of Winter and Summer Bees'
DESCRIPTION:About this Event\n\n\nThe roles of Winter and Summer bees\nThis talk looks at the functional and physiological differences between the worker honey bee that lives a brief life in the Summer\, and her sister who survives throughout the Winter to start the colony into action the following year. It focuses on the importance of these Winter bees and the effect that disease and nutrition has on their ability to survive. \n\n\n\nCelia F Davis B Sc NDB\nCelia’s interest in insects began when she was a child and initially focussed on butterflies and moths\, a group she is still interested in and increasingly depressed about. The fascination endured through school and university\, where she obtained a degree in agriculture and\, when she worked as a teacher and lecturer in Biology. When she married Cyril\, who was a keen photographer\, the interest expanded into photography. Life changed completely when Celia got her first hive of bees\, 40 years ago\, and they became a passion. During the intervening years she managed 14 hives\, but this has now been reduced to two at the bottom of the garden. She has\, at various times\, been President\, Secretary and Chairman of Warwickshire BKA\, served on the BBKA Examinations Board for 6 years and still tutors on the Correspondence Course and is involved in examining at all levels. \nShe has had 2 books published on the Biology and behaviour\, and various other aspects\, of honey bees and often writes articles for the major beekeeping journals. \nHer books\, The Honeybee Inside Out and The Honeybee Around & About are often used by those studying the Intermediate and Senior FIBKA exams.
