The National Science Foundation awarded a $1,040,113 Project Grant to the University of Michigan under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) for the period of September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2028.

The grant will support research examining the drivers of variation in plant-animal defense mutualisms, specifically investigating ecological, micro-, and macro-evolutionary variation in mite domatia structures across North American tree communities, genera, and species. The research aims to test hypotheses about ecological drivers of mutualism across geography and evolutionary time. Additionally, the grant will fund the development of an undergraduate course integrating research activities to enhance scientific literacy among non-science majors, combining humanities and science perspectives in the study of trees. The combined research and education efforts will generate publicly available data and train young scientists while increasing visibility of research in classrooms.
