BeeSearch Lab

Advancing honeybee health through genetic innovation and nutritional insight

Volcani Institute

Agricultural Research Organization

Welcome to our lab, where we combine cutting-edge scientific methods with a fully operational research apiary to advance honeybee science. This unique integration allows us to turn genetic and molecular discoveries into practical applications, bridging the gap between lab research and the field, to improve bee health and support sustainable beekeeping.

Our Focus

Nutrition Research
