Researchers

The research and development were managed by the CEO together with the four Program Leaders: A/Prof Bryan Boruff; Dr Peter Brooks; Dr Julia Grassl and Professor Sharon Purchase. Each Project was led by a Project Leader, and where a student was involved, they also took on the supervisor role.

The research and development were contracted to the University of Western Australia; the University of the Sunshine Coast; the University of Adelaide; the Chemistry Centre; the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, and the University of Tasmania. Outcomes could not have been achieved without the close collaboration of the honey bee industry through our Participants.
