Name: Genesis Chong
Function: PhD student
Research: I am a PhD candidate interested in the underlying mechanisms that survival honey bees use to defend themselves against Varroa mite. My research aims to establish a molecular breeding program focusing on honey bee health. I have an interest in host-parasite interaction, tolerance, immunity, Africanized honey bees, and defensive mechanisms.
