Professor Fedoriak, in addition to being an outstanding scientist and didactician, has been very active in helping her countrymen during the war, but in spite of it she finds time and a way to continue to work together with beekeepers and scientists for the good of bees.
This is how Mariia summarises her research and teaching career:
As a professor in the Department of Ecology and Biomonitoring, I teach the following courses: Animal Ecology, Pests and Quarantine Diseases. My research interests focus on animal assemblages under the influence of anthropogenic pressures: pollution, urbanisation, intensive agriculture, etc. Since 2014, I am the Ukrainian national coordinator of COLOSS research on bee colony losses in Ukraine.
