Sara and Sam are awarded Colorado Filed Ornithologists grants!

Congratulations to Sara and Sam for recently being awarded research grants from the Colorado Field Ornithologists! 

Sara will use her funds to sequence black-capped chickadee genomes as she continues to explore the genetic basis of variation in spatial cognition in chickadees. 

Sam will use her funds to sequence samples of probable avian pox infections in chickadees as part of her planned honors thesis work.

Thanks so much to the Colorado Field Ornithologists for their continued support of our research!
