Welcome to the López-Uribe Lab @Penn State

We investigate how evolutionary history, ecological interactions, and human management shape bee responses to the biotic and abiotic conditions of agricultural ecosystems, alongside ongoing efforts to monitor bee biodiversity and inform conservation strategies for wild populations. Our extension program complements this by delivering science-based guidance to beekeepers, crop growers, and Master Gardeners on how to support wild bee populations while sustainably managing honey bees for production and pollination services.
