Unlocking the secrets of the gut biome with honeybees

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

Kayla Miller, Ph.D., is an assistant professor of biology at Dakota Wesleyan University. She's extremely enthusiastic about what she calls the most charismatic pollinator.

Learn about her research into honeybee microbiomes and the tiny bug's big impact on South Dakota's environment.
