I am broadly interested in the effects of climate change on migration in a small song bird, the dark-eyed junco. Specifically, I'm interested in whether or not recent warming events have altered migration patterns and if junco immune function (i.e. susceptibility to disease and the ability to mount a response to infection) varies between the sexes within and between wintering latitudes. I also dabble in research looking at testosterone in females, specifically, its effects on parental care.
