INVITED SPEAKERS

We intend to invite researchers from around the world to attend this meeting.  In order to assure their attendance, we hope to secure at least partial funding for their expenses.  This is especially true for those coming from developing and under developed countries.  They have much to contribute to this meeting because they have had longer exposure to these problems, and, in many cases have had to develop novel, low cost methods for dealing with them.  Key individuals will be identified and will receive special invitations to attend.  Others will be sent our first and second announcements to encourage their attendance.  Announcements will be sent to more than 200 bee biologists and acarologists world-wide.
