This two-year National Science Foundation project grant of $138,000 supports postdoctoral fellowship research titled "Phage Life History and Evolution as a Driver of Microbial Ecology." The grant was awarded September 1, 2021 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct basic research promoting advancement in the biological sciences. The fellowship will investigate how bacteriophage life cycles and evolution influence microbial community structure through experiments performed in Palo Alto, California from 2021 through 2023. The project aims to strengthen national science by increasing understanding of relationships between phage genetics and microbial populations.
