Thank you, and those are great questions! Honestly, one of the big things I learned is the importance of communication. I had an off-campus advisor, and on-campus advisor for the first semester, and a different on-campus advisor for the second semester (because she was on research leave in the fall). I had to constantly be in communication with my advisors about money, methods, data analysis, etc., and if someone wasn’t in the loop, issues could arise and deadlines might not be met.
For your second question, my findings could be applied as easily as including phytochemicals in powder form as part of a nutrition supplement, but I think there needs to be studies that look at the impacts of phytochemicals on the health of managed honey bee colonies in the field rather than just in the lab before I make recommendations to beekeepers. I believe that would be the next step.

Thank you so much! You were the connection that got me started with bee research in the first place, and I appreciate it.
