🐝 HelEx at the forefront of bee & pollinator research: 2 great moments to share!
Last week, the HelEx project was well represented at the 73. Jahrestagung der Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Institute für Bienenforschung (Annual Meeting of the Working Group of Bee Research Institutes) in Braunschweig, Germany 🇩🇪 (24–26 March 2026).
Salena Husband and her student Yuliia Kovalova both took the stage to present the latest results from the HelEx project about the impact of sunflower diversity on pollinators. A great milestone in sharing our science with the broader bee research community!
🏆 And while we're celebrating, we're also thrilled to look back on a recent recognition
A few weeks ago, Salena presented HelEx bumble bee results at the Young Scientists Meeting in Quedlinburg, where she was awarded the prize for best oral presentation. Congratulations, Salena 👏🏻 a well-deserved recognition for outstanding science!
A big thank you to both Salena and Yuliia for representing HelEx with such excellence 🙏🏻
