Anja Tehel

Dr. Anja Tehel works at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg's Institute of Biology, General Zoology department, specializing in pollinator ecology and pathogen transmission between managed and wild bee species. Her research focuses on RNA virus dynamics in pollinators and their conservation implications.

• Current research project: Pathogen spill-over between pollinators
• Key research questions: Transmission directionality of honeybee viruses to wild bees
• Active in B-GOOD project (2020-2023)

Research Trends: Her publications (2016-2022) examine cross-species viral transmission, wild bee conservation, and microbiome-mediated viral tolerance. Key subfields include pollinator health, RNA virus ecology, and anthropogenic disease spread.

Education: PhD (Biology, 2015-2022), M.Sc. Biology (2011-2014), B.Sc. Biology (2008-2011), all from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg.
