HMC Bee Lab
In the Bee Lab at Harvey Mudd College, we study more than just bees. We're interested in how groups of animals evolve to coordinate behavior. Honey bees, for example, search out flowers and use their famous dance to tell nestmates where to go. By recruiting more bees to the best flowers, dancing helps the group collect food more efficiently. Using mathematical models, computer simulation, and lab and field experiments with bees and ants, we explore how communication shapes collective behavior.
