This $199,775 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology will support research at the University of California, Los Angeles to develop models to understand and predict the spread of monkeypox virus. The research will analyze monkeypox virus surveillance data and transmission patterns in both core and non-core populations. Mathematical models will be built to design disease control strategies, such as comparing outcomes from reducing transmission in...
This $499,998 project grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on assessing adaptive and maladaptive stress responses in wild capuchin monkeys. The study, led by the University of Michigan, aims to: 1) measure variation in glucocorticoid levels in the monkeys before and after known social and ecological stressors; 2) quantify each individual's unique stress response; 3) determine if these responses are...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $193,336.00 to The Johns Hopkins University to conduct a rapid response study on the epidemiological factors related to human monkeypox virus (MPOX) in men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States. The key objectives are to: 1) evaluate determinants and disparities of MPOX vaccination amongst MSM; 2)...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award in the amount of $200,000 supports research to investigate how different stakeholders, from government officials to the general public, use and perceive information about the evolving H5N1 avian influenza outbreaks in U.S. dairy cattle. The project aims to enhance national health interests by providing insights to guide better communication and decision-making for safeguarding...
The National Science Foundation Division of Social and Economic Science awarded a $545,000 Project Grant to the National Bureau Of Economic Research Inc. doing business as Nber, for the project "THE CUTTER INCIDENT: CONSEQUENCES OF A PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS" from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2024. This Project Grant funding will support Nber's work examining the social, behavioral, and economic impacts of a public health crisis through the lens of the Cutter Incident, when the Salk...
This $108,131 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program will fund research at Duke University to establish a new efficient simulation method for assessing rare but highly consequential epidemic events. The project aims to identify key risk factors in virus-spreading interactions that can facilitate large outbreaks, using disease models similar to COVID-19 and HIV as case studies. The research will provide improved...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Mathematical Sciences, CFDA program 47.049 (Mathematical and Physical Sciences), supports research investigating how the transition from subsistence farming to cash crops impacts infectious disease transmission patterns in rural communities. The $500,000 award to Duke University's Office of Research Administration Division runs from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2028. The key products and services delivered under this...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $200,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Virginia to develop data-driven, multimodal methods for behavior-based epidemiological modeling. The key objectives are to: Improve techniques for deriving meaningful insights from imperfect, real-world sensor data like mobile phones and search engine logs to capture complex human behaviors in real-time. Couple agent-based disease models...
This three-year National Science Foundation Project Grant of $199,996 supports research into how wild redtail monkeys make nutritional decisions across variable forest environments. The awardee, the Research Foundation of the City University of New York on behalf of Hunter College, will investigate feeding behavior, diet compositions, and gut microbiomes as monkeys experience disparate nutritional conditions in three forests. Behavioral observations, dietary analysis, and microbiome...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) provides $128,798 to Northern Kentucky University to conduct a longitudinal assessment of the impact of early life adversity on the development of social behavior in a non-human primate species. The study aims to contribute to the understanding of the evolution of the juvenile period and the proximate mechanisms underlying the relationship between early life...
