BRIDGING VETERINARY REGULATION AND HONEY BEE BIOLOGY
Data-driven development for bee medicinal products.
Optimizing the registration strategy for your bee medicinal product:
- Clarification of required preclinical and clinical studies in accordance with EU regulatory standards.
- Design and execution of efficacy, dose determination, and target-species studies based on honey bee biology.
- Scientific assessment of product performance under practical beekeeping conditions.
Define your regulatory pathway with species-specific evidence.

In my blog, I make bee science accessible – without simplifying. I explain and comment bee science and talk about different bee topics.
- Authorities and bee health
Authorities and bee health – that was quite an experience this year. And I have… let’s say thoughts. To begin with, I’m totally fine with honey bees being under veterinary regulation. I think this is necessary: We’re managing an animal, so the responsibility of taking care of this animal as good as possible is in… Read more: Authorities and bee health - Varroa resistant bees – between hope and reality
Varroa resistant bees are the big hope for many beekeepers. I’ve never made a secret of what I think about this – and also given some reasons in a previous blog post. My main criticism being that varroa resistance breeding is sold as a final solution very often. And this is taking people for fools… Read more: Varroa resistant bees – between hope and reality - Misinformation in the beekeeping industry
There’s a lot of misinformation in the beekeeping industry. And as it gets more and more difficult to identify good sources of information, this may be one of the huge issues we’ll have to face in the future. Being at two conferences in Copenhagen last month (the COLOSS meeting and then the Apimondia conference), relieved… Read more: Misinformation in the beekeeping industry
