The AOS today announced our 2026 Kessel Fellowships for Ornithological Research. One arctic research 2026 Kessel Fellowship of $30,000 was awarded to Dr. Audrey Le Pogam; and six individual $15,000 fellowships were awarded to Drs. Carrie Ann Adams, David Diez-Méndez, Jennifer L. Houtz, Abby Kimmitt, Amy Miles Yanagitsuru, and Laura E. Nuñez.
The AOS recognizes individuals and groups whose ornithological research, contributions to the science and practice of ornithology, and service to the AOS merit special distinction.

“Over the past few years, the AOS has become my primary scientific society and it has played a big role in my professional growth by providing me with a lot of skills as well as a forum to make meaningful contributions.”
