This National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship in the amount of $207,000 will fund research from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The fellow will conduct integrative research on the interactions between genomes, environments and phenotypes governing viral-microbial dynamics on successional coral reefs in Ranobe Bay, Madagascar. Using molecular and ecological techniques combined with coral reef restoration, the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant award of $240,000 will fund a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate how interactions among individual coral reef fishes drive ecosystem-scale function in coral reef environments. The research will integrate field observations and lab experiments to understand the relationship between individual behavioral phenotypes, group composition, collective behavior, and ecosystem productivity in coral reefs,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program, provides USD 270,000 in funding from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028. The grant supports a postdoctoral research fellowship to study the chemical, molecular, and cellular processes involved in the symbiotic relationship between cnidarians (such as corals) and their algal partners. The research aims to identify the mechanisms that lead to specificity in these partnerships,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the mechanisms underlying coral bleaching. The research aims to identify the genetic factors and host proteins that regulate the formation and breakdown of the symbiotic relationship between corals and photosynthetic algae, which is crucial for coral survival. The fellow will develop methods to isolate and...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support postdoctoral fellowship research titled "Tracing Coral Reef Energy Fluxes from Genes to Ecosystems in a Changing Climate." The two-year award, made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund fellowships for research examining how coral reef ecosystems respond to climate change impacts at multiple levels of biological organization, from genes to whole reef systems. The fellowships will be...
This $276,000 National Science Foundation Project Grant, awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will fund research investigating the cellular mechanisms and evolution of coral-algal symbiosis. The fellow will characterize the symbiosome membrane proteome in the sea anemone Exaiptasia diaphana and coral Acropora millepora to better understand the fundamental processes governing the critical symbiotic relationship between corals and algae. Through techniques including...
NSF POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN BIOLOGY FY 2021: INVADERS FROM THE SEA: UNEARTHING THE GENOMIC BASIS OF MARINE-TO-TERRESTRIAL LIFE-HISTORY TRANSITIONS This $207,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Biological Infrastructure will fund research from June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2025 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The grant aims to advance understanding of major problems confronting the nation by promoting progress in the biological sciences....
This $599,986 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to determine how coral reef-associated microbes influence ecological processes on coral reefs. The project aims to understand how organic matter released by benthic primary producers on coral reefs selects for specific microbial taxa, and how the metabolism of these core reef microbes facilitates nutrient cycling, calcification, and biodiversity. The research combines...
This $276,000 National Science Foundation award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) funds a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate the molecular dynamics of assembly of the stinging cell organelle in cnidarians. The fellow will conduct integrative research using the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis as a model to study how different stinging cell types are assembled at the molecular level. Techniques including proteomics, protein interaction analyses, single-cell sequencing,...
