- This NSF Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $600,000 to Emory University will investigate how microbiome communities, which are communities of bacteria and other microbes that live in and on organisms, can resist change and transition to alternate states. The project will use the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans as a model host to better define the stability and properties of alternate microbiome states, as well as how factors like antibiotic treatment and host...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) in the amount of $300,000 supports research by Duke University to develop an integrated experimental and computational approach to uncover the design principles governing microbiome function. The key objectives are to apply advanced machine learning techniques, high-throughput microbial community construction, and metabolomics to elucidate the molecular networks and cellular...
- The University of South Florida (USF) received a $681,876 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems under the Biological Sciences grant program (CFDA 47.074). The grant will fund a collaborative research project to investigate how prophages (viruses that infect bacteria) influence the structure and function of animal microbiomes, specifically in Ciona robusta (an invertebrate chordate) and Danio rerio (zebrafish). The project will...
- This $985,496 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research by the University of Rochester to develop an innovative platform for controlling and stabilizing microbial communities. The project aims to leverage horizontal gene transfer, specifically through plasmid conjugation, to dynamically balance growth rates and community composition, creating programmable microbial populations capable of maintaining stability across...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $996,521 project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the Carnegie Institution of Washington for the period of April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024. The goal of the research project is to scale single-cell physiology studies to better understand community stability in the natural gut microbiome. As part of this work, Johns Hopkins University will expand its microbiome curriculum to additional middle schools in Baltimore County...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $100,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to Nmc, Inc., doing business as New Mexico Consortium, for a 2-day workshop entitled "Microbiome Data Management in Action" to be held in Atlanta, GA on June 12-13, 2024. The proposed workshop will bring together key decision makers in microbiome science to discuss recent progress, challenges, and recommendations for improved environmental microbiome data...
- This federal Project Grant award of $914,479 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a research project led by The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York to study the spatial organization and stability of synthetic gut microbiome communities in gnotobiotic mice. The research aims to elucidate the principles governing the assembly and persistence of microbial communities in the human digestive tract, which are essential for human...
- This federal Project Grant award of $224,921 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports a collaborative research project to investigate the ecological significance and impact of viral infections on sulfate reducing microbial communities.
