Why are native bees important, and what can we learn from studying their physiology? Dr. Hollis Woodard, an assistant professor of entomology at UC Riverside, discusses her research on bumble bees, the challenges and rewards of being a principal investigator, and the evolutionary questions that initially set her on a path to becoming a scientist.

2. Native Bee Ecology and Life as a Principal Investigator with Dr. Hollis Woodard

Listen in to today's episode to learn about the bees that evolved in vastly different climates, and why Dr. Woodard's lab studies the way they have adapted. “In the bumblebee lineage, they have been social for so long now, that it's really difficult, in fact impossible, to definitively answer the question of why they evolved socially.” - Dr. Hollis Woodard.

59 Dr. Hollis Woodard - Bees in dynamic and extreme environments

Nate Pope

Sarah Cusser

Kim Ballare

Shalene Jha’s research group at UT-Austin conducts research on plant and pollinator landscape ecology, plant and pollinator population genetics and disease ecology, and how land use impacts critical ecological processes for native plants and their pollinators. Postdoctoral researcher Hollis Woodard and PhD students Nate Pope, Sarah Cusser, and Kim Ballare joined us to talk about native bee natural history, the evolution of sociality in bees, pollination ecology, and how agricultural development and urban landscapes affect native bee populations. Tune in to learn about how important and amazing native bees are!
