Abstract
Asteroseismology and spectroscopy provide complementary constraints on the fundamental and chemical properties of stars. I describe the first results from APOKASC, a collaboration between the Kepler asteroseismic science consortium (KASC) and the SDSS-III APOGEE survey. These include (1) the first test of asteroseismic scaling relationships in the metal-poor regime using halo and thick disk stars identified in the APOKASC sample; and (2) the calibration of spectroscopic parameters using precise asteroseismic measurements of surface gravity. I also highlight future research avenues that are made possible by this unique sample of thousands of well-characterized red giant stars.
