This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $415,682 to the California State University Long Beach Research Foundation to conduct research on the effects of ocean warming on a coastal fish species. The key objectives are to: 1) quantify genetic variation in temperature response, 2) determine if local adaptation to temperature exists, and 3) assess whether evolutionary changes can occur quickly enough to impact population...
This federal Project Grant award of $626,837.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research at Stony Brook University to investigate the role of phenotypic plasticity and natural selection in the early stages of new species formation in threespine stickleback fish. The research will examine recently-established freshwater stickleback populations near Anchorage, Alaska that have diverged from their marine ancestors,...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research titled "Parallel Genome and Phenome Evolution within and across Fish Species" from December 2021 through November 2023. The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote advancement in the biological sciences and strengthen the Nation's scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and understanding of major challenges. Through this two-year award,...
This federal Project Grant award of $432,357 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to understand how fishes have adapted to high-pressure environments in the deep ocean. The research aims to: Characterize patterns of genome evolution across 100 species of perciform fishes found at depths ranging from 0-8,000 meters. Measure structural changes in key biomolecules involved in metabolism, cell movement, and stress responses across...
This $276,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports research and training in evolutionary genomics of rapid adaptation in wild threespine stickleback fish populations. Funded under the Biological Sciences program of the NSF Division of Biological Infrastructure, the award enables a postdoctoral fellow to study how genomic and population factors impact rapid adaptive evolution in the wild. Using threespine stickleback that diverged from marine to freshwater populations within the...
