Dganit Eldar is a biologist and educator with extensive and diverse experience in scientific fields. A graduate of the Faculty of Agriculture in Rehovot, where she specialized in plant sciences, genetics, and beekeeping, she continued her academic studies at Lipscomb University in the United States, where she earned a master's degree and a teaching certificate in science education. Her impressive professional career combines work as a technician in leading research laboratories, including the Kinneret Limnological Laboratory (Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research) and the Meharry Medical School in Nashville, Tennessee, alongside science teaching. Her expertise in beekeeping was enhanced by completing a beekeeping course through the Nashville Area Beekeepers Association (NABA), which led to her winning the Beekeeper of the Year award in 2010, in recognition of her educational activities to raise awareness about the importance of honeybees. During her 20 years of activity in the sciences and as an educational beekeeper, Deganit established educational apiaries in schools and at a nature center in and around Nashville, taught beekeeping courses, and led various educational activities on honeybees and pollinators. Her broad education also includes training in environmental and sustainability project management. The pinnacle of her professional activity is reflected in her latest initiative from 2024, the Bee-Well il program, which applies beekeeping principles for the well-being of combat-affected individuals in Israel, inspired by the American HIVES program, demonstrating her deep commitment to integrating science, education, and community contribution.
