Produced by Esther Debón, the seven-minute video shows the team conducting all stages of the studies (to the relevant OECD Guidelines 213 and 214), from collection of worker bees from the hives, through treatment to assessment of effects.  It won the SynTech 2013 Training Video prize, and will be used as part of SynTech’s global training for its country units conducting SynTech’s pollinator study laboratory programmes.
