UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Online registration and submission of abstracts now are open for the fifth International Conference on Pollinator Biology, Health and Policy, which is scheduled for June 3-6, 2023, at the Penn Stater Hotel and Conference Center on Penn State’s University Park campus. The conference website can be found at this link.

The first international conference was hosted by Penn State in 2010, according to Christina Grozinger, director of the Penn State Center for Pollinator Research.

“The last 13 years have led to significant breakthroughs in our understanding of the drivers of pollinator declines, the tools to monitor and predict these declines, and strategies to conserve and expand managed and wild pollinator populations, as well as broader insect communities,” Grozinger said. “At the 2023 conference, we will celebrate these successes and discuss ongoing and emerging global challenges to pollinators.”
