The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems awarded a $1,263,992 project grant to the University of California, Berkeley under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct collaborative research on the mechanistic basis of cricket wing dimorphism. The project aims to develop a powerful model system using North American field crickets in the genus Gryllus to discover the genetic, developmental, physiological, and environmental processes that...
This federal Project Grant award of $736,073 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research at the University of Minnesota to examine intraspecific variation in female choosiness in mating behavior and its genetic basis, using crickets as a study system. The overarching goals are to: 1) estimate variation in female choosiness for male song traits, 2) assess whether there is repeatable individual variation in choosiness, and 3)...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000 under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a postdoctoral fellowship at Raleigh, NC to study the neural control of acoustic duetting in fruit flies. The research aims to investigate how the brain evolves to generate new mating behaviors, such as female flies singing back to males during courtship. The project will leverage the fruit fly as a model organism to understand the neural circuitry that coordinates...
