The research aims to promote progress in the biological sciences by...
The National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $247,284 project grant to the University of Oregon to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: BEE: INTEGRATING EVOLUTIONARY GENETICS AND POPULATION ECOLOGY TO DETECT CONTEMPORARY ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE ACROSS A SPECIES RANGE." The three-year award, made on May 1, 2022 under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program, will fund research examining how bee populations are adapting...
This $654,761 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant awarded to the Chicago Horticultural Society's Chicago Botanic Garden division will investigate how bee populations respond to rapid environmental changes. The researchers will use in-situ temperature manipulations and cross-population comparisons to measure the direct and indirect effects of climate change, including impacts mediated through changes in food resources and nest parasites, on vital...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology provides $850,485 to The Pennsylvania State University from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "How many routes to the same phenotype? Genetic changes underlying parallel acquisition of mimetic color patterns across bumble bees." This research aligns with the goals of the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the...
This $626,680 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at Colorado State University from January 2024 through December 2026. The research aims to understand the mechanistic, functional, and evolutionary bases of slow-fast phenotypic diversity and its significance in social honeybee groups. Investigators will study genetic lines of honeybees bred for low and high metabolic rates to understand fundamental differences. A...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding over 3 years starting June 1, 2025 to investigate how an alpine plant species in the Rocky Mountains will respond and adapt to climate change. The research aims to understand how population responses to microclimate variation impact range shifts under climate change scenarios. The project will use field and greenhouse experiments, genetic analyses, and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will provide $240,000 to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on investigating the biological drivers of climate-driven range contractions in bumble bees. The fellowship will employ a combination of field and laboratory techniques to study how bumble bee body size and genotype interact with climate factors to influence dispersal, overwintering survivorship, and thermal...
This $687,357 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to study repeated evolution in a diverse group of alpine beetles. The researchers will explore whether natural selection has acted on the same molecular pathways as species adapted to alpine environments during past climate cycles. Comparative genomic and stress tolerance experiments will test for evidence of repeated evolution and identify the genetic mechanisms...
This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Integrative Organismal Systems provides $138,000 to fund postdoctoral research integrating genes, environment and behavior to understand nutrient foraging in honey bees. The award period is from March 2022 through February 2024, with performance taking place in State College, Pennsylvania. This award supports the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in biology and strengthen the...
