SUMMARY:Ghosts That We Knew: Responses to Unfamiliar and Familiar Alarm Calls by Hawaiian Native and Nonnative Birds
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Jonah Dominguez\, Ph.D. candidate\, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign University; AOS 2024 Student Research Grant winner\n \n \n  \nBirds can respond to the alarm calls of heterospecifics\, though this is primarily documented in species engaging in mixed-species flocks. In Hawaiʻi\, using the alarm call of native species and species that invasive species evolved alongside but no longer experience\, we tested whether this alarm call response is the result of learned experiences\, evolutionary history\, or acoustic components of the alarm calls. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Investigating communities and bryophyte use in Prothonotary Warbler nests
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Skadi Kylander\, Ph.D. candidate\, East Carolina University; AOS 2024 Josselyn Van Tyne Memorial Research Grant\nwinner\n \n \nMany birds incorporate fresh green plants in their nests\, which has been hypothesized to moderate communities of harmful organisms therein. This hypothesis has received mixed support with species that use vascular plants\, but birds that use nonvascular plants (e.g.\, mosses) have received less attention. I am working with one of these birds\, the Prothonotary Warbler (Protonotaria citrea)\, to characterize arthropod and fungal communities using molecular techniques and identify plants in nests to investigate relationships among these aspects of nests containing nonvascular plants and will present preliminary findings. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Professional Paths in Ornithology
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Affairs Committee Professional Development Webinar Series\n  \nModerator:\nSara Padula\, Ph.D. Candidate\, University of Colorado\, Boulder; AOS Student Affairs Committee \nPanelists:\nJulie Kleinhans\, Environmental Scientist; Stantec\nDan Ruthrauff\, retired from USGS\, conservationist; Manomet Conservation Sciences\nTed Floyd\, Editor of Birding magazine and author\, American Birding Association\nGriffin Archambault\, Research Biologist\, Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation \n  \nJoin us for a panel discussion highlighting career paths in ornithology beyond academia. Our speakers work in a wide array of fields including conservation organizations\, government agencies\, and environmental consulting. Panelists will discuss how they entered their fields\, what their day-to-day work looks like\, and the skills that helped them succeed. \nIntended audience: \nThis session will include time for audience questions and is designed for AOS members who are students and early-career ornithologists interested in exploring the wide range of professional opportunities available in ornithology. \nThis event is open to all current AOS members. If your membership has lapsed\, you will be prompted to renew your AOS membership before registering. You can renew your membership here.

SUMMARY:Assessing the long-term impacts of chronic infection with avian malaria in Hawai‘i ‘amakihi
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Emma Stierhoff\, M.Sc. graduate\, University of Hawai‘i; AOS 2022 Student Research Grant winner\n \n \nWhile Hawaiʻi ʻamakihi have demonstrated lower mortality to acute infection with avian malaria than other native honeycreepers\, little is known about the impacts after this acute stage\, as they remain chronically infected with low-level parasitemia. Research done by scientists at the University of Hawaiʻi\, National Parks Service\, and United States Geological Survey in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park over the course of three years elucidated some of these effects. Results from this study suggest that Hawaiʻi ʻamakihi surviving the acute stage of infection may not suffer negative long-term impacts to their fitness. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series

SUMMARY:Impact of gut microbiome modulation on nesting house sparrow physiology
DESCRIPTION:AOS Student Research Grant Seminar\nPresenter: Kristen Rosamond\, Ph.D. candidate\, University of Missouri-St. Louis; AOS 2023 Josselyn Van Tyne Memorial Research Grant winner \n  \n \nThe gut microbiome undergoes succession in early life and plays a key role in shaping host immunity\, and perturbations during this time period can have lasting consequences for physiological function. Here\, I aimed to experimentally disrupt the gut microbiome of wild house sparrow nestlings using probiotics or antibiotics\, followed by an immune challenge to explore whether such manipulations impact host physiology. I will present preliminary results placing these dynamics in an ecological context\, where the effects of such perturbations in wild animals remain poorly understood. \nMore about the Student Research Grant Seminar Series
