BRIDGING VETERINARY REGULATION AND HONEY BEE BIOLOGY
Data-driven development for bee medicinal products.
Optimizing the registration strategy for your bee medicinal product:
- Clarification of required preclinical and clinical studies in accordance with EU regulatory standards.
- Design and execution of efficacy, dose determination, and target-species studies based on honey bee biology.
- Scientific assessment of product performance under practical beekeeping conditions.
Define your regulatory pathway with species-specific evidence.

Stay with me, it’s an important premise: Health, be it bee health or any other organism, is more than just the absence of disease. Very often beekeepers fix their attention on single factors and lose sight of the… Read more: What affects bee health? Varroa, climate and beekeeping - Authorities and bee health
Authorities and bee health – that was quite an experience this year. And I have… let’s say thoughts. To begin with, I’m totally fine with honey bees being under veterinary regulation.
