We found honey bees🍯🐝 & climate 🌞 explain viral prevalence in wild bees 🐝 on a continental scale 🌍. An awesome collaboration! @NielsPiot et al @Delarua_pilar @guysmagghe + many none twitterers #bees #virus #disease #climate nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

Finally published! We used pairwise learning to predict pollination network based on traits and phylogeny. Work in collaboration with @NielsPiot, @guysmagghe and @JorisMeys. authors.elsevier.com/c/1czVf…
