Thanks for the tip Allen, I have spent half an hour or so reading the easly
accessible stuff that she has written.
I shall be contacting her about the details in some of her work, which has
strong parallels with what a few of us are 'playing with' in UK.
It highlights the point that not all beekeepers think alike. We have a bunch
of dedicated amateurs in the UK (we call ourselves IINGRIDD) that research
and practice new methods of instrumental insemination and try and teach them
to others.
There is a page that will lead you to many different aspects of II, with
links to groups that practice it, methods of making the equipment, methods
of using the equipment and so on.

I realise that this is not to everybodies taste, but it does show how
diverse beekeeping is as a subject.
