Check out this exciting new paper highlighting the importance of proteins during bird migration! I am very thrilled about having had the chance to be part of this team and research! 🐦#longestwindtunnelflight @cory_elowe, Derrick Groom, UMass Gerson Lab pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Protein, rather than fat, may limit the flight time of such epic migrators as blackpoll warblers. The tiny birds flew for 28 hours in a wind tunnel—a new record—and only quit when their protein reserves gave out. In PNAS: ow.ly/KEF050NMNZX

I am very excited to share our new paper on the “hunger hormone” ghrelin in southern rockhopper penguins with you! It was a pleasure to be part of this team and this project 🐧🪶🧪😊 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… fusanilab Alba Hykollari KLIVV Vienna FIWI Vienna

I feel very honored that our work on ghrelin in Southern rockhopper penguins will be highlighted on the cover of this month’s issue of Hormones and Behavior! A big thank you to Cheryl McCormick and Hormones and Behavior Journal for the opportunity to contribute the photo for the cover image! fusanilab
