This $149,732 National Science Foundation award under the Biological Sciences (47.074) federal grant program will support the IDIGBEES Network project to digitize bee specimen records across U.S. collections. Colorado State University will mobilize at least 350,000 bee specimen records and 6,600 high-resolution images for open access databases. This digitization aims to map bee species distributions, identify data gaps, document climate impacts on bees, and establish networks for research and...
This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Integrative Organismal Systems provides $138,000 to fund postdoctoral research integrating genes, environment and behavior to understand nutrient foraging in honey bees. The award period is from March 2022 through February 2024, with performance taking place in State College, Pennsylvania. This award supports the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in biology and strengthen the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral research fellowship in biology from July 2024 to June 2027. The fellowship will investigate how honeybee swarms utilize local information to adapt their internal and external structures in response to environmental perturbations such as wind, rain, and temperature changes. The research will involve experimental studies using X-ray...
The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $138,000 Project Grant to identify the mechanisms linking social environment to physiological plasticity in an incipiently social orchid bee. The grant falls under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to advance biological knowledge and understanding of major issues. Over the September 2021 to August 2023 period of performance, the grantee will conduct research at Davis, California to explore how social interactions...
This $654,761 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant awarded to the Chicago Horticultural Society's Chicago Botanic Garden division will investigate how bee populations respond to rapid environmental changes. The researchers will use in-situ temperature manipulations and cross-population comparisons to measure the direct and indirect effects of climate change, including impacts mediated through changes in food resources and nest parasites, on vital...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology provides $850,485 to The Pennsylvania State University from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The grant supports collaborative research titled "How many routes to the same phenotype? Genetic changes underlying parallel acquisition of mimetic color patterns across bumble bees." This research aligns with the goals of the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the...
This $1,120,270 National Science Foundation project grant, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will support research into the social and ecological drivers of life history evolution in wild bees. Principal investigator Utah State University will conduct three sets of experiments to investigate how wild bees allocate resources between immunity, reproduction, and longevity as a function of variation in their social and ecological environments. The research aims to determine...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $217,080 project grant to the University of Colorado Boulder under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support the "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: DIGITIZATION TCN: EXTENDING ANTHOPHILA RESEARCH THROUGH IMAGE AND TRAIT DIGITIZATION (BIG-BEE)" effort. The grant will fund the digitization of images and trait data to extend ongoing research on Anthophila, commonly known as bees, through September 2024. By digitizing existing...
This Project Grant award in the amount of $144,912 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at North Carolina State University to investigate the factors shaping host-associated microbial communities using the honey bee as a model system. The research aims to integrate concepts from ecology and evolution to understand how environmental factors, species interactions, and evolutionary dynamics influence the composition of...
This $300,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports the Biodiversity Outreach Network's IDIGBEES Network initiative. Under the Biological Sciences CFDA 47.074 program, the awardee will digitize over 350,000 bee specimen records and 6,600 images from natural history collections. This comprehensive digitization effort aims to map bee species distributions, identify data gaps, document climate impacts on bees, and establish networks to utilize findings for research, education,...
