Apiary Biosecurity Limits Diseases

How management practices for biosecurity measures can support and enhance colony health and survival.

We will discuss general biosecurity strategies in the following areas:

2. Biosecurity related to climate, the macro- and micro-environment
3. Pests and Pathogens
4. Agrochemicals/the impact of toxins
5. Hygienic bees

Speaker:  Terry Ryan Kane, DVM.  Dr. Terry Ryan Kane earned a Master of Science degree in Ecology from the University of Illinois, Chicago, and took beekeeping while attending veterinary school at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. After decades of clinical practice, she pivoted to policy as an AAAS science advisor in the U.S. Senate working on the Farm Bill, emerging diseases, and antibiotic resistance. Following the FDA ruling on antibiotic stewardship in livestock animals, she has devoted her time to teaching veterinarians/students about honey bees and pollinator ecology. 

Dr. Kane is currently serving on the Executive Board of The Honey Bee Veterinary Consortium, an organization of honey bee veterinarians and students. She is co-editor of a textbook, Honey Bee Medicine for the Veterinary Practitioner (Wiley Press, 2021).

​Please join us - our monthly meetings are always free and open to the public!​
