Untimely loss of Job van Praagh

The bee community has experienced a great loss with the recent death of Dr. Job van Praagh.

Honorary Professor at the University of Leibniz in Hanover, Job dedicated his life to research into the biology and eco-toxicology of bees. Straightforward, sincere and honest, the discussions with Job were always intelligent, warm and stimulating.

We’ll miss him.

Rest in peace.
