Her research is motivated by understanding how seasonal migration contributes to population divergence. She studies differences in gene expression and hormones associated with reproduction in subspecies of juncos that differ in migratory behavior but are found in sympatry for part of the year.\u00a0 In fact, migratory strategy explains differences in timing of female reproductive development and in measures of neuroendrocrine processes in this seasonally sympatric songbird.
