Presenting at the 2026 SOT Conference
Eli Wooliever presented his poster on “Genetic Expression Changes Induced by Atmospheric Nanoplastics in Human Lung Epithelia Reduced at Environmentally Relevant Concentrations” at SOT’s 65th Annual Meeting & ToxExpo in San Diego, CA.
Presenting at ESA 2025
An enriching discussion on honey bee health research took place at the symposium “From the Bench to the Field: Emerging Technologies to Advance Honey Bee Health” part of the Entomological Society of America Annual Meeting in Portland, OR. The symposium was co-organized by Dr. Nicklisch, Dr. Fine, and Dr. Ricigliano; and hosted presentations from:
- Elena Gratton ( University of Illinois) – What can forensic methods tell us? Using non-lethal pathogen screens to identify bee pathogens.
- Professor Reed Johnson (The Ohio State University) – Are honey bee detoxicative cytochrome P450 genes different from other bees?
- Angela Encerrado (University of California, Davis) – Mapping the invisible: How advanced AMS technology reveals chemical communication and contamination pathways in bee colonies.
- Allyson Martin Ewert (Louisiana State University) – Honey bee stock mediates the gut microbiome response to diet.
First Microplastic Pollution Symposium at UC Davis
The 2025 North American Microplastic Symposium at UC Davis on “Microplastic Pollution: Impact on the SF Bay Delta and Remediation Strategies“. Organizers Christina Pasparakis, Amelie Segarra, and Sascha Nicklisch pulled together a fantastic team of expert speakers to discuss the current state and future directions of microplastic research in aquatic ecosystems.

Angela Presents at the 2024 ESA meeting
Angela was invited to present at the “Emerging Professionals in Integrated Pest and Pollinator Management” symposium which was part of the Entomological Society of America Annual meeting at Phoenix, AZ.
The ESA Program Enhancement Funds (PEF) was a travel fellowship awarded Angela to help offset for the expenses of this trip, where she presented her research on “Multidrug resistance ABC transporter ortholog expression pattern across honey bee castes“.
Bee sure we will be back next year with more exiting research to share!

Celebrating Latino-Hispanic Research.
Angela Encerrado presented her poster on “Enhancing knowledge of chemical exposures and fate in honey bee hives: Insights from colony structure and interactions” , and shared more about the Nicklisch Lab efforts in bee research at the Latino-Hispanic Research and Networking Symposium hosted by MGSA in Davis, CA.
Tina presents at an Undergraduate Conference.
Tina Truong presented our ongoing study on “Design and Optimization of a Novel Method to Asses the Impact of Okadaic Acid in Mytilus Species” and shared her plans for the future of this project at the 35th Annual Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities Conference in Davis, CA.
