This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship to study the impacts of climate change on insect phenotypes, populations, and communities. The research aims to: 1) build a model to estimate how insect traits like body size and developmental timing respond to temperature variation, 2) quantify how these phenotypic changes affect population dynamics, and 3) determine how...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology under CFDA 47.074 (Biological Sciences) will support a 3-year research project investigating how temperature influences the evolution of mating signal complexity in jumping spiders across North America. The $240,000 award will fund the fellow's research and training, which will integrate physiological experiments, behavioral trials, and evolutionary analyses to examine how temperature impacts the production and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) that will investigate plant-butterfly dynamics across changing landscapes. The research project will address how variation in habitat quality affects native plant-butterfly networks, including several butterfly species known to migrate between the western United States and Mexico. The research...
The National Science Foundation awarded $414,000 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The fellowship funding will support integrative research investigating the intersection of genomes, environments, and phenotypes in elevational migrant bird species across the Andes and Himalayas. The fellow will generate valuable museum specimens including frozen tissues and genomic,...
This National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology award for $240,000 will fund research from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026 exploring the role of hybridization on diet breadth evolution in the fall webworm. The fellowship recipient will conduct laboratory and field experiments in collaboration with veterans from the community college system to assess the influence of hybridization on diet breadth in two genetically distinct biotypes of the fall webworm...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to fund an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2023. The purpose of the fellowship is to increase the participation of groups underrepresented in biology. The fellow's proposed studies will investigate interactions between migratory and resident bird species during spring migration stopover periods, which have implications for migration ecology, climate...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $138,000 funds a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024. The fellowship supports integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environments and phenotypes under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). Specifically, the fellow will conduct experiments and genomic sequencing to determine how temperature affects interactions between the tree hole...
This National Science Foundation award of $276,000 provides funding for a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2024 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The fellowship supports research and training to increase participation in biology from underrepresented groups. Specifically, the fellow will study extremophile brine flies to understand their genetic adaptations to survive in extreme aquatic habitats. They will characterize the evolutionary history...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $138,000 provides funding from April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2025 to support an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology. The fellowship funding will support research and training focused on investigating the genomics, heat shock proteins, and climate change adaptations of desert-adapted asiloid fly species. The fellow will sequence genomes of asiloid fly groups to create a foundational dataset for further genomic studies. Identification...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology. The fellowship will fund a research and training plan to study how climate change-driven increases in temperature affect the bioturbation activities of chironomid larvae and the resulting impacts on nutrient cycling and bacterial activity in freshwater ecosystems, particularly in urban streams in Puerto Rico....
