HMC BeeLab

HMC Bee Lab at Harvey Mudd College focuses on the study of communication and collective behavior in animal groups, particularly bees and ants. The lab employs mathematical models, computer simulations, and various experiments to understand how these insects coordinate their activities, with honey bees famously using their dance to share information about food sources.

Research projects at the Bee Lab delve into topics such as insect aggression and the intricate interactions between ant species. Through innovative approaches and a commitment to exploring group dynamics, the lab aims to uncover the underlying mechanisms that drive cooperative behaviors in these fascinating creatures.
