He soon realized the wonders of honey bee colonies. He is a Lead Scientist in the US Department of Agriculture’s Bee Research Laboratory (Beltsville, MD), where he has focused on interactions between bees and the pathogens and parasites that torment them while looking for ways for beekeepers to avoid and/or treat chemical and biological stresses.
