- This NSF Biological Sciences program award in the amount of $497,509 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota will support collaborative research on how prophages (viruses that infect bacteria) influence the structure and function of animal microbiomes. The project will utilize the invertebrate chordate Ciona robusta and the vertebrate zebrafish Danio rerio as model systems. The research will integrate genetic, predictive modeling, and experimental approaches to study the biology and...
- The University of South Florida was awarded a $684,557 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems. The grant falls under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) and will fund research linking individual variation in immunity and behavior to landscape patterns in disease risk using the National Ecological Observatory Network. Specifically, the grant will support collaborative research examining how landscape features influence the...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $833,999.00 to Georgia Tech Research Corporation (Georgia TECH) to investigate how defined microbiomes respond to viruses over short and long timescales. The project aims to test the hypothesis that robust microbiome functions are promoted by microbial communication systems and costs of virus resistance. This...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research to investigate the assembly, diversification, and coevolution of marine invertebrate microbiomes. The $590,677 award to New College of Florida aims to understand how and why particular microbes are hosted by marine invertebrates, the relationship between host diversity and microbiome diversity, and how these associations change over evolutionary time....
- This NSF Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $600,000 to Emory University will investigate how microbiome communities, which are communities of bacteria and other microbes that live in and on organisms, can resist change and transition to alternate states. The project will use the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans as a model host to better define the stability and properties of alternate microbiome states, as well as how factors like antibiotic treatment and host...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $996,521 project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the Carnegie Institution of Washington for the period of April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024. The goal of the research project is to scale single-cell physiology studies to better understand community stability in the natural gut microbiome. As part of this work, Johns Hopkins University will expand its microbiome curriculum to additional middle schools in Baltimore County...
