Corticosterone exposure causes long-term changes in DNA methylation, physiology, and breeding decisions in a wild bird.

C. C. Taff, S. M. McNew, L. C. Campagna, M. N. Vitousek

This study shows that corticosterone exposure in wild tree swallows leads to long-term changes in DNA methylation, physiology, and breeding behavior.

Joint effects of social interactions and environmental challenges on physiology, internal microbiome, and reproductive performance in tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor).

C. C. Taff, S. M. McNew, C. Zimmer, J. J. Uehling, J. L. Houtz, T. A. Ryan, D. Chang van Oordt, A. S. Injaian, M. N. Vitousek

The paper manipulates social interactions and ecological challenges in tree swallows to assess their joint effects on physiology, microbiome, and reproductive success, finding limited interaction between the two treatment types.

Deeply conserved susceptibility in a multi-host, multi-parasite system

L. N. Barrow, S. M. McNew, N. Mitchell, S. C. Galen, H. L. Lutz, H. Skeen, T. Valqui, J. D. Weckstein, C. C. Witt

The paper investigates susceptibility to haemosporidian parasites across bird species, finding that host phylogeny significantly influences infection rates.
