The National Science Foundation Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences awarded a $949,997 Project Grant to the University of Wisconsin-Madison under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The grant will fund research from July 2021 through June 2025 to advance understanding of plant endosomal sorting mechanisms and ESCRT function in plants. As the stated purpose of the Biological Sciences program is to promote progress in biology and strengthen the national science enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of major issues, this award will likely support basic research to develop new insights into important cellular processes in plants. The University of Wisconsin-Madison will leverage the funding to deliver research services through its Research and Sponsored Programs division aimed at fulfilling the project's goals over the four-year period.
