Very excited to have this paper out. Super fun collaboration.

So excited for you!!! It will be hard to watch you go, but I can’t wait to watch the Sauer Lab shine.

A high-lipid diet leads to greater pathology and lower tolerance during infection Summary: Canaries fed a diet high in lipids show more severe disease outcomes than those fed a high-protein diet, with important implications for human and wildlife disease transmission.

A high lipid diet leads to worse infectious disease outcomes. Interesting implications for wildlife food supplementation. Always exciting to have a new manuscript out! Congrats @ashley-love.bsky.social @sauerscientist.bsky.social

I was unintentionally killing a plant. About 2 months ago, I placed it on the “Free Table” with a help me sign. The plant disappeared. Look what showed up on the Free Table today! The note😍🌿

Effect of dietary macronutrients and immune challenge on gut microbiota, physiology and feeding behaviour in zebra finches Molecular Ecology is an international journal for research using molecular genetic techniques to address questions in ecology, evolution, behavior and conservation.

Excited for this pub with Ashley Love, Noha Youssef, and Shawn Wilder to be published in Molecular Ecology!

Congrats to Will Kirkpatrick and Maddie Sudnik on their Departmental awards for outstanding research in ecology and ornithology! I’m a lucky PI😄

New paper out today! Male pathology can drive transmission without sex-based differences in behavior. Congrats to Dr. Erin Sauer! @animalecology.bsky.social
