Chemical biologist and conservationist rosavespinoza is leading stingless bee conservation efforts in the Amazon. Though her work is hyper-local and concerns a native species, she is changing the world. A Laureate of the 2026 Rolex Awards, she is combining scientific research and Indigenous knowledge to protect these bees and, in turn, the rainforest.
