NHRE NEWS REU Site, EAR-1560088 The Newsletter of the NSF REU Site: Natural History Research Experiences Summer Internship Program Volume 5 Welcome to the NSF REU-Site Natural History Research Experiences’ annual newsletter. Autumn 2016 Number of NHRE Directors’ Corner alumni, by US Home State Hello again!

AL 0 AK 0 This past summer, we had a very successful program, the first year of our five-year NSF renewal. NHRE class of 2016 kept the flame of great natural history research burning, with projects that asked questions like: How do AZ 2 AR 3 polychaetes swim? What kinds of critters were living with dinosaurs in Montana 80 million years ago? How CA 10 CO 2 would volcanic flows work on Mars? And, How many kinds of insects are there in tropical leaf litter? For an- swers to these questions and more, you can check out the posters under “Past Projects” at the NHRE website. CT 3 DE 0

DC 1 FL 1 The summer program was similar to previous years, with some small tweaks. We tried out a new field trip to the GA 2 HI 1 US Botanical Gardens, where we collected insects and plants and hiked around in the lovely July weather. We have expanded our relationship with the YES! Program of high school students, and changed our surveys to bet- ID 0 IL 3 ter be able to assess the success of the program. We had a great bunch of interns from all over, including, for the IN 2 IA 0 first time, a native of Wyoming. This had me (Gene) wondering: How well do we draw from the whole country with our intern pool? Because I am a huge nerd, I decided to analyze the data and find out. KS 0 KY 1

LA 3 ME 0 When you look at the counts of NHRE alumni by state of permanent residence on the sidebar to the left, you can MD 7 MA 3 see the states in the lead are California and Pennsylvania with 10, followed closely by New York, Virginia and MI 5 MN 2 Ohio. On the other end of the spectrum, 13 states have yet to send an intern our way. This is not really a fair way to tally this, though, because some states have many more people than others and all, else equal, they will have MS 0 MO 2 more college students eligible for the NHRE. So when I mapped state contributions here, the darker blue colors MT 0 NE 0 show the number of NHRE alumni per million people in each state. On this per capita scale, Pennsylvania and Virginia still stand out but so do other states such as Arkansas and Wyoming, the latter because of a single

I have also plotted state population size against the num- ber of NHRE interns, with select states labeled. Once you account for population size, the most under- represented state is actually Florida – lots of people live there, but we’ve only had one join the NHRE. On the other side, the states most overrepresented are Pennsyl- vania, Virginia, and Maryland, perhaps because they are nearby to Washington, DC. I am slightly embarrassed to admit that I looked at some more complicated models that predict the number of NHRE alumni using state population, plus additional variables that account for how far away the state is from DC, and how strong the education system is in each state. That more complex model actually does fit the data better, but not by much, so I’ll spare you the gory details. By now, you may be thinking that surely I had more pressing things I needed to do besides spending 3 hours analyzing these data and making these figures. You’d be right, but you really shouldn’t judge people for their compulsions.

Anyway, that’s all for now. We hope all of you are doing great, and that you continue to keep in touch with us as your lives move forward in whatever direction they take. In the meanwhile, we’ll see if we can check off some more states when we accept NHRE class of 2017! NHRE Class of 2016

NHRE Class of 2010

Fieldwork in the Peruvian Amazon Submitted by Joanna Larson

I’m starting my 4th year as a PhD student at Michigan and have been doing lots of fieldwork in the US and Peru to collect samples for my main project, which examines how diet evolves in frogs using a novel phylogenetic framework. I’m developing new molecular and statistical methods of studying diet. My fieldwork involves making many frogs vomit! I’m working on a paper describing the new method of generating diet data that will hopefully be published early next year. Starting in October, I will be back in the Peruvian Amazon for 5-6 months of field work to collect samples for my diet project, as well as side projects on coral snakes and coral snake mimics.

Studying Environmental Law at UCLA

Submitted by Sunjana Supekar I just moved to Los Angeles to begin law school at UCLA, studying environmental law. Last year, I was also included as a co-author (with several other interns, including other NHRE interns, I believe) on a publication involving research that I had done at the museum under Dr. Jesús Maldonado. The publication is located here: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0140280

NHRE Class of 2011 Studying drought impact on grassland plant communities

Submitted by Allison Post I started a PhD program in ecology at Colorado State Universi- ty last fall, and I'm now living in Fort Collins, CO (which I love). I also found out that I received the 2016 NSF GRFP (Graduate Research Fellowship Program) Fellowship. I'm planning to study impacts of extreme drought on grassland plant communities, and am setting up my field experiments now!

NHRE Class of 2012 Providing humanitarian aid at the Arizona-Mexican border

Oscar Lopez is in the MA Geography program with the Department of Geographic Sciences & Urban Plan- ning, Chicago, Illinois. He is studying energy production and the ensuing landscapes, especially how they relate to soil quality and food production. He recently became involved with a group of students from ASU that are part of a course taught by Dr. Scott Warren, who has extensive experience along the Arizona-Mexico border. The course explores the humanitarian crisis of the death and suffering of undocumented border-crossers.

Oscar is traveling to the Arizona-Mexico border to provide humanitarian aid in the form of food, water, and medi- cal supplies. Not only will this directly impact the lives of people crossing the desert along the border, but it will also provide invaluable hands-on experience for all involved. His fundraising page is http://asu.useed.net/projects/432/home/8462 Page 5 NHRE NEWS

A busy, fruitful year

Submitted by Tyler Imfeld

This past year has seen quite a lot of change and maturation of my research and experience in my PhD at the University of Minnesota. I had the incredible opportunity to TA a lab for our Evolution course and the Ornithology class this past year, both of which have cement- ed my desire to teach in the future. My efforts to secure funding were overwhelmingly successful and I was awarded four of the five grants & fellowships for which I applied. One funded a week of re- search utilizing the ornithology research collections at the American Museum of Natural History, another will fund two trips to the Field Museum for the same reason, and the other two, especially the Day- ton Fellowship from the Bell Museum of Natural History, will give me fellowship support until the end of next summer! I'm currently writing my prelim proposal and am preparing for another exciting year of travel and research.

I had a jam-packed summer in which I visited friends and attended weddings at home in Ohio, traveled to Portland, ME, for a phenomics workshop, attended the 2016 Evolution meeting in Austin, TX, and the North American Ornithological Conference in Washington, DC, and even vacationed in London and Paris!

On a more personal note, my beautiful partner, Melissa, and I were mar- ried this past January in Cincinnati and have been having a fun first few months of married-life. I've attached a picture of myself presenting some results at the Evolution meeting in Austin, and a picture of Melissa and I on our wedding day.

Studying similarities in the development of humans and fish

Submitted by Akela Kuwahara I’m still at UCSF, in my 2nd year of the Developmental and Stem Cell Biology PhD program. I’ve joined the lab of Dr. Dan Hart, and am using the zebrafish as a model system to study early developmental processes, particularly cardiac development. Amazingly, humans and fish have quite a bit of similarities in their development! Our goal is to under- stand how the heart develops in order to understand cardiac defects and regeneration. So far, I’m loving the challenge and the science. I think back to my NHRE internship all the time - it was a turning point in my career. The mentorship, skill set, and experience thinking and communicating as a scientist led me to apply for graduate school and pursue a career in science. I also daydream of returning to NMNH as a principal investigator one day!

The systematics and morphological diversification of endemic Philippine rodents

Submitted by Dakota Rowsey My work as a graduate student is deeply rooted in the principles of mammalian evolution in which I got my start, working at the NMNH back in 2012. One of the reasons I chose to work in Sharon Jansa's lab at the University of Minneso- ta was the potential to integrate the morphological methods I had developed as an undergraduate with Sharon's expertise in molecular phylogenetic methods. My research integrates these two data types and focuses on the effects of time- staggered colonization events by closely-related taxa on rates and patterns of evolution, using Philippine-endemic rodents as my study system. As I am wrapping up my second year in the program, I'm currently working on my pre- liminary exam proposal and will take my oral exams later this year.

I've earned a few small sums of money from the Bell Museum, the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior at the University of Minnesota, and more recently, the American Society of Mammalogists, to pursue my research, which allowed me to travel to the NMNH and the American Museum of Natu- ral History this summer. My work would simply not be possible without the large collections in D.C., New York, and Chicago.

Since starting graduate school, I’ve worked as a curatorial assistant for the Bell Museum of Natural History, as well as a teaching assistant, where I helped teach the upper-division mammalogy class. I particularly enjoyed teaching; being as passionate as I am about mammalian natural history and evolution, it was nice to be able to share some of that enthusiasm with students. I'm going to be TA-ing the class again this fall and I'm looking forward to having a year of experience under my belt. In the spring, I will be a curatorial assistant for the genetic resources collection at the Bell Museum, helping to record and consolidate the tissues and DNA sequences stored there in an easy-to-access database.

Finally, I presented some preliminary results for one of my dissertation chapters as a poster at the 96th annual meeting of the American Society of Mammalogists which were hosted here in Minneapolis just this past June. I ended up pre- senting my work without so much as a break to get some water for about three hours! I left the session exhausted but very encouraged. Many people asked when the data would be published. The best answer I can give at this point is "stay tuned," but my museum visits this summer bring me one step closer to having that final data set.

Collecting data on NOAA ship, Okeanos Explorer

Submitted by Calder Atta

Right now, I'm in Hawaii volunteering at the Waikiki Aquarium, mainly caring for the jelly exhibits. I've also been working on the NOAA ship, Okeanos Explorer. We were collecting high-resolution bathymetric data primarily for potential ROV dive sites. This year's field season, which focused on deep reefs, seamounts, and WWII wrecks in the Pacific Remote Islands and Marianas Islands, just concluded. Earlier this year, I went to King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in Saudi Arabia, for a workshop concerning the oceanography and ecology of the Red Sea. Next year, I plan on returning to study the biodiversity and evolutionary ecolo- gy of Red Sea fishes. Independently, I have been trying to develop skills in scientific illustration.

NHRE Class of 2013

Continuing research on the Zapotecan language

Submitted by Chris Brendel There isn't a whole lot new with me: still doing the PhD in linguistics at UC Santa Barbara. I got an honorable mention for the NSF GRFP, and hopefully next year I'll try again for a successful award (I can dream!). I have a couple co- authored papers being reviewed for conferences and publication, but I haven't heard anything back about their status yet. I'm still working on Juchitán Zapotec (I hope to do fieldwork this summer in Mexico to inform a later phylogenetic analysis of the Zapotecan language family), but I've also begun working a computational analysis in the change in the case system of Icelandic, particularly on non-nominative subjects. I'll be continuing to investigate these diachronic changes in Icelandic parallel along with my work on Zapotec.

Working in Japan

Submitted by Gabrielle Ramirez I graduated from University of Texas at Austin in May of 2015 with Honors and a BS in Geosciences and, after a sum- mer internship with an oil and gas company, I took a gap year to backpack and volunteer in South America and Central America. This fall I started my masters at Penn State University (University Park-Main Campus) and my adviser is Don Fisher, a structural geologist. I am studying earthquake-related processes in Japan and collaborating with the Uni- versity of Tokyo. I leave for my first trip to Japan this weekend! I'm still not sure if I am going to go for a PhD or try to get a job but I will keep you all updated, whichever the case!

A Bornean Adventure

Submitted by Subir B. Shakya

Last May and June, I had the opportunity to go do field work in the jungles of the mountains of Borneo. I was helping out my fellow graduate student, Ryan Burn- er, and my graduate advisor at Louisiana State University, Dr. Frederick Sheldon, with some of their bird sampling. We spent around 21 days in the jungles of Mt. Mulu and Mt. Pueh, hiking, setting mistnets, collecting bird poop, collecting bird specimens, and having an adventure of a lifetime. This was my first time in the field and my first time handling birds, so there was much to learn. first-hand. Caption describing picture Theor graphic.expedition was perilous at times, but very enjoyable. Even though I hail from the Himalayas, these tropical mountains were something else. Snakes, insects, falling rocks, and all kinds of other plants and animals were everywhere in this undisturbed corner of the world. We saw many beautiful species of birds and mammals, and the occasional herps. Every day, I would wrestle with 20 or more

I was nearly attacked by a hornbill, fell in quicksand, almost stepped on a poisonous snake, had trees falling willy-nilly around camp, and got bit by a multitude of insects. These events boost- ed a great experience that I had out in the field. Come November, I will be going back to Borneo and continuing my field adventures. I am really excited to continue ex- ploring the world and seeing with my own eyes what once inspired Alfred Russel Wallace.
