OPEN POSTDOCTORAL POSITION
Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Beekeeping
A postdoctoral position is available in the López-Uribe lab (www.lopezuribelab.com) at Penn State University to work on a large collaborative project related to organic beekeeping and foraging behavior of managed honey bees. This USDA-funded project aims to investigate foraging ranges of honey bees in different landscapes by integrating behavioral data, radars, QR code data, and forage availability. We will test the role of colony size and landscape context on the average distance of foragers from different colonies. The project will generate a longitudinal dataset of 3 years that will offer opportunities for several peer-reviewed and extension publications.
