This $452,989 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at California State University, Long Beach to examine the evolutionary demography of rhesus macaques. The project aims to understand how social factors impact individual phenotypes and life history traits in the population over time. Researchers will characterize physical and cognitive traits across macaque lifespans and relate these to social status. They will develop...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $656,273 to the University of Montana to conduct collaborative research on the mechanisms and consequences of centromere drive in monkeyflowers. The project aims to investigate how genes and DNA sequences cause selfish centromere drive, how plants resist this drive, and the impacts on seed and pollen production. The research team will leverage new chromosome-scale genome...
This $499,998 project grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on assessing adaptive and maladaptive stress responses in wild capuchin monkeys. The study, led by the University of Michigan, aims to: 1) measure variation in glucocorticoid levels in the monkeys before and after known social and ecological stressors; 2) quantify each individual's unique stress response; 3) determine if these responses are...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $130,808 supports research into signals of genetic quality and mate choice in nonhuman primates from April 1, 2022 to March 31, 2026. The award is made under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which aims to promote basic research and education in the social, behavioral and economic sciences. Specifically, the University of Texas at Arlington will conduct field-based research to examine whether seasonal...
This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF), totaling $207,000, will fund research into the implications of hybridization on macroevolutionary and contemporary timescales in biology. The award falls under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of major issues. The grantee, located in Roosevelt, Utah,...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $417,856 supports research on understanding variation in primate aging patterns through March 2026. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award to Stony Brook University will couple a longitudinal dataset on over 100 wild non-human primates with physiology, medical imaging, molecular, and comparative methods. The research aims to identify the trajectory of aging across the life course regarding...
This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075), provides $329,849 to San Diego State University Research Foundation to study factors affecting foraging and provisioning decisions in rapidly changing landscapes. The research will examine how human-modified habitats shape macaque behavior in agricultural intensification contexts and people's...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support research titled "A Novel Model System for Studying the Evolution and Genomics of Longevity" from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023. The two-year award will fund the development of a new model organism to advance understanding of longevity through the study of evolution and genomics. The Biological Sciences program aims to promote progress in the...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $307,486 provides funding from April 2022 through March 2026 to support research examining signals of genetic quality and mate choice in nonhuman primates. Funded under the federal Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award to California Lutheran University will advance knowledge of physiology and social evolution in primate relatives through field-based research and laboratory analysis. Undergraduate...
This Project Grant award for $392,500.00 was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859). The award supports a research program with the goal of identifying predictive rules for cross-species viral transmission from wild mammals to humans. The research will develop: 1) automated tools to curate mammal and virus genetic data and regularly update the Mammalia species-level molecular phylogeny, 2)...
