The National Science Foundation awarded a $276,000 Project Grant to support a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology for fiscal year 2022 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The Fellowship funding will support integrative research investigating the interactions between genomes, environment and phenotypes that govern gene-brain-behavior links in domestic dogs. Specifically, the Fellow will conduct a multimethod study from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024 to investigate gene-brain-behavior phenotypes of aggression in domestic dogs. The research will combine behavior assessment surveys with neuroimaging (MRI) and genetic analysis of pet dogs. Dogs scoring in the top and bottom 20% of aggression scales will participate in additional screening, genetic testing via cheek swabs, and MRI scans. The Fellow will analyze differences and interactions among brain phenotypes linked to genotype, brain structure, and early adverse experiences. Insights aim to further understanding of gene-brain-environment interactions governing aggression, with implications for human and animal welfare.
