This $414,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environment and phenotypes through June 2025. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the award enables a postdoctoral fellowship in biology at North Carolina State University to examine patterns of natural selection in gray wolf populations within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. By combining genomic and epigenetic techniques, the fellow will study adaptive evolution and resilience to chronic oncogenic stress from multigenerational radiation exposure. Findings aim to inform evolutionary effects of radiation on oncogenesis and immune response, with potential relevance for human cancer physiology and treatments. Broader impacts include outreach to diverse audiences on model systems for addressing complex societal issues.
