Speakers

Two keynote addresses are planned the conference.

The first, at 2:30 pm on Friday, is by Mark Winston, entitled Audacious Tips for the Future of Beekeeping. A lot of us have look over, and send regularly to, Mark’s The Biology of the Honey Bee, published in 1993, and much more recently we've been inspired by Bee Time: Lessons from Hive, published two years ago, and which incidentally ended up being awarded the 2015 Canadian Governor General’s Literary Award for Nonfiction. Mark is one of those uncommon, extremely respected experts which communicates effortlessly with all the general public. In that respect he occupies similar rarified atmosphere as Tom Sealey.

The second, at 10:45 on Saturday, is through Keith Delaplane, called Thinking Superorganismally: How Evolutionary Biology will make us Better Beekeepers and that can enhance Bee Breeding, and as such is complementary to the superb a number of articles which have been operating in the United states Bee Journal for the past couple of years.

Keith ended up being the feature of an amazing interview by Jennifer Berry, published in Bee community in Nov. 2015. a teacher within University of Georgia in Athens, he has got written over 75 analysis, expansion and academic journals, authored three books, and contains already been an editor for many others – such as the 42nd version of ABC & XYZ of Bee heritage.
