Kaan Özgencil
I am a PhD student in biology based in Ankara, Turkey. I have been a nature-lover all my life, and my love for birds is an evergrowing one. My current research interests are functional ecology of birds, avian community ecology, and conservation of endangered avifauna. If you are interested in any of these topics and need a collaborator in Turkey, you can contact me on Twitter: @bio_kaanMartins Briedis

Wouter Vansteelant
Research topic: Migration
Study species: Eurasian birds of prey
As a keen birder I have long been fascinated by ecology and the complexity of natural systems. Animal movement is a particularly intriguing discipline aiming to understand how individual animals decide to move through their environment in search of resources, and how behavior of individuals translates into population dynamics and species distributions.

Research topics: Geolocation tracking; Migration routes; Migratory connectivity; genetic migration
Study speciess: Siberian rubythroat; Siberian/Stejnegeri's stonechat
I am a 2nd-year PhD student in University of Groningen, the Netherlands, main supervisor is Barbara Helm. I work with Siberian rubythroat and Siberian/Stejnegeri's stonechats (race maurus, przewalski and stejnegeri) to study: 1. the impact of geographical barriers in western China (e.g., Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau) on the migration routes of passerines; 2. the genetic basis and genomic structural details associated with the migration pattern differences across different populations.

Research topics: Ecophysiology; Full annual cycle; genetic migration; Non-breeding ecology; Light pollution
Study species: Siberian/Stejnegeri's stonechat
Hi, I'm at the Swiss Ornithological Institute. I'm interested in all aspects of migration, in particular responses to light pollution, the migration cycle in Africa, and broadly timing and annual cycles.
Chris Dee
Study species: Pied Flycatcher
I have had an interest in the natural world since childhood and developed an enthusiasm for birds in my teenage years, going on to study Zoology at the University of Oxford.
In North Devon, England, I monitor breeding Pied Flycatchers in nestboxes at three woodlands as part of the PiedFly Network.
When I am not ringing, I run my own company specialising in website development for bird-related not-for-profit organisations and volunteer groups.
