Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Michaela Hau mainly focuses on Seasonal breeder, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Ecology and Zoology. The study of Seasonal breeder is intertwined with the study of Passerine in a number of ways. Pinealectomy and Circadian rhythm are among the areas of Endocrinology where the researcher is concentrating her efforts.

Ecology is closely attributed to Gonad in her study. Zoology is often connected to Corticosterone in her work. Her research integrates issues of Parental investment, Prolactin and Reproductive success in her study of Corticosterone.

Her most cited work include:

  • Regulation of male traits by testosterone: implications for the evolution of vertebrate life histories (419 citations)
  • Quantifying and comparing constitutive immunity across avian species (256 citations)
  • Testosterone and year-round territorial aggression in a tropical bird. (189 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her main research concerns Zoology, Ecology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Corticosterone. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Songbird and Reproductive success. Her Ecology study combines topics in areas such as photoperiodism and Circadian rhythm, Chronobiology.

Many of her studies on Internal medicine involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Spotted antbird. Her study explores the link between Corticosterone and topics such as Stressor that cross with problems in Telomere and Oxidative stress. Michaela Hau interconnects Sparrow, Paternal care and Testosterone in the investigation of issues within Seasonal breeder.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Zoology (54.43%)
  • Ecology (47.47%)
  • Internal medicine (35.44%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Zoology (54.43%)
  • Corticosterone (37.34%)
  • Glucocorticoid (16.46%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Michaela Hau mainly investigates Zoology, Corticosterone, Glucocorticoid, Stressor and Hormone. In the field of Zoology, her study on Passerine and Seasonal breeder overlaps with subjects such as Trait. Her Corticosterone study focuses on Internal medicine and Endocrinology.

Michaela Hau has researched Glucocorticoid in several fields, including Food availability, Interspecific competition, Energy expenditure, Foraging and Thermoregulation. Her Stressor study incorporates themes from Homeostasis, Signalling, Cell biology, Cell cycle and Energy homeostasis. The concepts of her Hormone study are interwoven with issues in Stimulation, Comparative physiology, Dexamethasone and Population study.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Corticosterone levels reflect variation in metabolic rate, independent of 'stress'. (32 citations)
  • Corticosterone levels reflect variation in metabolic rate, independent of 'stress'. (32 citations)
  • HormoneBase, a population-level database of steroid hormone levels across vertebrates. (26 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Her primary areas of investigation include Corticosterone, Stressor, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Hormone. Her Corticosterone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Trade-off, Physiology and Reproduction. Her Stressor study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Oxidative stress, Homeostasis, Signalling, Cell biology and Energy homeostasis.

Her Internal medicine research includes elements of Psychological stressor and Allostasis. Many of her studies involve connections with topics such as Comparative physiology and Endocrinology. In her research, Avian clutch size, Phylogenetic comparative methods, Seasonal breeder and Interspecific competition is intimately related to Glucocorticoid, which falls under the overarching field of Hormone.
