- This federal Project Grant award, totaling $635,938.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The award will fund research examining how increasing environmental variability impacts fitness trade-offs across complex life cycles, focusing on a salamander species in New Hampshire. Key objectives include studying how timing of metamorphosis affects juvenile and adult traits, survival, and population dynamics. Additionally, the research will...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation will fund $240,000 over three years to support an integrative investigation into microevolutionary change in salamanders impacted by urbanization. Awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the funding will support a postdoctoral research fellowship focusing on the northern two-lined salamander. The fellow will examine genomic and phenotypic consequences of urbanization by sampling salamanders from urban, suburban, and...
- This Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program, funds a research project at the University of California, Davis to investigate the mechanisms underlying sex differences and reversals in parental care behavior. The $643,427 grant, awarded on June 1, 2025, will run through January 31, 2026. The project capitalizes on naturally occurring parental flexibility in the neotropical poison frog, Dendrobates tinctorius, to...
