September 21-22, 2024 • Online Course (Livestream & On-Demand)
The Honey Bee Veterinary Consortium (HBVC) is made up of students and professionals from all segments of veterinary medicine and animal science who care about bees and beekeeping.
As of January 2017, if a beekeeper needs to administer antibiotics to their honey bees, they are required to have a prescription or feed directive from a licensed veterinarian. Part of our mission at HBVC is to provide an avenue for beekeepers to locate a veterinarian that is willing to work with bees.
The 2024 HBVC Virtual Conference will feature lectures that will cover a wide variety of honey bee related topics. You can view the full schedule below. Sessions will be live-streamed each day and will also be available on-demand after the conference. see website for complete schedule and registration. https://cvm.ncsu.edu/hbvc/
