Shanya Morisseau, graduating senior, and Dr. Shana Caro of the Biology Dept, just published their research on whether wild birds prefer processed or unprocessed foods, and if urbanization changes that preference.

Adelphi professor Dr. Natalia Prado and undergrad Mary Kearney investigated is kiwi get stressed by acting as zoo "ambassadors." They found that the birds are chill with hanging out with zoo-goers.

Self promotion time! Recently, we found that maternal BMI status does not impact HMO composition, however maternal HMOs were correlated with specific infant bacterial taxa and genes, reinforcing the influence of HMOs on the infant gut microbiome. www.mdpi.com/3139886

The newest members of the Caro Lab have arrived at the @adelphibiodept.bsky.social!
These 30 Dominique chicks are going to help us understand how chickens make choices -- generating new insights into avian cognition and metacognition... plus they're adorable!
