The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $247,406 Project Grant to the University of Portland to conduct collaborative research on the multilevel effects of urbanization on wildlife health. The project, titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: RUI: MULTILEVEL EFFECTS OF URBANIZATION ON WILDLIFE HEALTH: AN INTEGRATIVE APPROACH", will study the impact of urban habitats on the health of the western deer mouse, a species found in both urban and rural...
The National Science Foundation, under its Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), awarded Carroll College a $179,949 Project Grant to study the multilevel effects of urbanization on the health of the western deer mouse. This 3-year research project aims to identify the key factors that impact wildlife health in urban areas, as the deer mouse inhabits both urban and rural environments. Researchers will collect data on habitat characteristics and mouse health metrics, such as immune function...
This $714,816 National Science Foundation project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at the University of Washington from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025. The research aims to better understand how environmental health disparities in urban areas impact the trophic and disease dynamics of carnivore populations. Specifically, the project will examine links between toxicant exposure, altered diets, and disease risk for urban carnivores in...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $259,330 Project Grant under its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Pittsburgh. This 1-year grant, awarded on May 1, 2024, will support research on "The Datafied Animal: Biologging, Machine Learning and Wildlife Conservation." The project will analyze the ethical, social, and practical implications of using new technologies like miniaturized animal tags, GPS-telemetry, and machine learning...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $716,280 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana. The grant funds a collaborative research project to investigate the potential impacts of climate change on the interactions between parasitic botfly larvae and high-elevation deer mice populations. The research aims to develop predictive models for how novel host-parasite dynamics may evolve under shifting environmental...
Washington State University received a $399,616 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology on September 1, 2021 to conduct collaborative research examining the effects of declines in top scavengers from microbes to ecosystems. The research is being carried out under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote advancement in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing...
This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the genomic basis of rapid urban adaptation in house mice. The $240,000 award, effective December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2027, will enable the fellow to: 1) characterize temporal shifts in urban mouse population structure and genetic diversity, and 2) identify genomic signatures of rapid adaptation to urban...
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 National Science Foundation project grant of $200,000 awarded to Georgetown University on July 15, 2022 will fund research investigating the relationship between population density and infectious disease dynamics in animal populations. The research will analyze dozens of wildlife disease datasets using meta-analyses to examine whether individuals in high-density areas have higher pathogen loads, whether specific interactions that spread disease become more likely with higher host densities,...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $2,212,841 project grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the University of Montana. This 4-year project, titled "A Spatially-Explicit Model of Bat Evolution and Pathogen Transmission Dynamics in Complex Changing Landscapes", will study how bats in North America are adapting to the disease white-nose syndrome and climate change. The project aims to develop a new disease modeling framework that integrates wildlife...
