Welcome

On behalf of the European Association for Bee Research (EurBee) I have the great honour and pleasure to invite you to attend the 9th European Congress of Apidology (EurBee 9) convened under the motto: “Save the bees for our future”.

The conference intends to promote knowledge exchange and international cooperation and to enable the further exchange of up-to-date scientific information on different aspects of managed and wild bees among researchers, teachers, students, experts in extension. EurBee has become the main European event for bee scientists studying how bees respond to climatic changes to discuss problems with bee health, conservation, ecology, diversity, pollination, beekeeping and colony losses.

The six world-renowned experts in bee’s science are invited to give keynote lectures to present the latest developments in their research fields. Each morning and afternoon will commence with a plenary lecture, followed by three parallel symposia. Scientists from Europe and far beyond are welcome to Belgrade to exchange recent advancements and ideas that emerge from basic and applied research.

The conference serves as a connection platform for top European research in Apidology and hosts the pan-European research projects and networks. EurBee 9 congress should contribute to identifying new approaches, tools, and techniques to meet future needs and challenges facing bee science.

We will do our best to make the EurBee 9 successful and enjoyable as possible and look forward with great anticipation to seeing you in Belgrade, Serbia, September 20-22, 2022.


Sincerely Yours,

Ljubiša Stanisavljević,

Host Committee President
