The Molecular Secrets of Survivor Bees

Research: I focus on the translation of genotype-phenotype relationship to improving bee health. The research emphasis focuses on the rich diverse genome of the southern California Survivor Bee (scutellata hybrids) that can be valuable in ensuring the production of food crops in California due to evolving pollinator requirements and climate change.
