This Project Grant award of $798,450 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a trilateral research project to study the role of microbiomes in providing resilience to multiple environmental stresses in duckweed, an aquatic plant with potential as a sustainable food and fuel source. The project, which runs from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028, aims to quantify the effects of a synthetic bacterial community on duckweed's responses to a large...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant will provide $240,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on investigating the molecular mechanisms governing the remarkable adaptability of aquatic plants. The research aims to elucidate the genetic underpinnings of heterophylly (the ability to produce different leaf forms) and facultative CAM photosynthesis in the model plant Littorella uniflora. The project will employ...
This $138,000 National Science Foundation award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024. The fellowship will support integrative research investigating the rules governing interactions between genomes, environments and phenotypes in plant microbiomes under global change. The fellow will test new theory on plant-microbe associations and apply a tradeoff framework analyzing microbial yield,...
This $414,000 National Science Foundation project grant funds postdoctoral research fellowship activities from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The fellowship will support integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environment and phenotypes. Specifically, the fellow will conduct multiple experiments in defaunated and intact tropical forests in Ecuador to investigate how the...
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 ecological implications of whole genome duplication in plants. The $240,000 award, effective from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027, will enable the fellow to develop new phylogenetic comparative methods to understand how whole-genome duplication impacts climatic niche dynamics. The research will leverage existing...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000.00, to be carried out from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026, will fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology. The research will focus on quantifying the diversity and climate change response in the Chamaecrista fasciculata-rhizobial symbiosis. The project will leverage the partridge pea plant and its associated rhizobial bacteria to evaluate how climate change impacts plant-microbial interactions, with the goal of...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to fund a 3-year NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology. The fellowship supports research to understand the biological mechanisms that enable plants to adapt to drought stress and climate variability. The research will examine genetic and phenotypic differences in the yellow monkeyflower (Mimulus guttatus) that confer drought tolerance across diverse environmental...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 to support a 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship investigating the rules of life governing interactions between plant genomes, environment, and phenotypes. The project will test the assumption that plant leaf airspaces are saturated with water vapor, which is used in important Earth systems models. If these airspaces are found to be unsaturated, it would overturn decades...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) FY 2023 award, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research and training focused on exploring the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environment, and phenotypes in a plant-fungal symbiosis. The $240,000 award will fund a 3-year project that aims to identify the genetic regulation occurring across plant and fungal species to understand how their...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $240,000 in funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028. The fellowship supports research and training focused on investigating the rules governing interactions between genomes, environment, and phenotypes of lichen holobionts (the lichen organism and its associated microbiome) in response to climate change. The key objectives are to:...
