Dr. Currie's Bee Lab at the University of Manitoba focuses on the biology, behaviour, and life history of managed and native pollinating insects with a focus on the European Honey Bee.

We are also currently looking at interactions between managed and native pollinators and encouraging native pollinators in urban habitats.
