692772 event 1790171407 1790171528 Dr. Williamson will discuss her research on birds that make extreme seasonal shifts in elevation during migration and how these movements affect ecology, evolution, and physiology. She will highlight her lab’s work on giant hummingbirds (Patagona spp.) in the Andes, where her team has combined movement tracking, genomics, and field physiological experiments to uncover extreme daily movements, a spectacular long-distance migratory journey involving an extreme elevational ascent, and cryptic speciation between the world’s largest hummingbirds.
