The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $977,779 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to investigate how climate change and land use shifts may impact the synchronization between mosquito vectors and bird hosts, and the implications for West Nile Virus transmission. The research will leverage a combination of modeling, causal inference, citizen science, and field data collection to understand how...
This $739,821 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports an interdisciplinary research and educational initiative focused on understanding vector-borne disease dynamics in a lizard-malaria system. The principal investigator will develop mathematical models to examine how individual host differences, movement, and spatial heterogeneity impact disease transmission. These hypotheses will then be tested through field transmission...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $138,000 funds a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2024. The fellowship supports integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environments and phenotypes under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). Specifically, the fellow will conduct experiments and genomic sequencing to determine how temperature affects interactions between the tree hole...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology awarded a $200,000 Project Grant to the University of Georgia Research Foundation (UGA Research Foundation) to conduct research on the "Thermal Community Ecology of Disease" over a 2-year period from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2025. This research project under the NSF Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) seeks to understand how changes in temperature impact the dynamics of infectious diseases within ecological...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $207,000 Project Grant to support research from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2024 titled "Mosquito-Borne Disease Networks and Variation in Transmission Traits Across a Gradient of Anthropogenic Impact." The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to further the program's goals of advancing the biological sciences and strengthening the national scientific enterprise through increasing scientific knowledge and...
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...
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will conduct collaborative research on projecting insect responses to climate change under a $506,253 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Emerging Frontiers. The research supports the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen understanding of major problems confronting the nation. Through December 2025, UNC-Chapel Hill researchers will take an integrative...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), aims to investigate the role of human behavior in the dynamics of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and Zika. The $100,000 grant, awarded to North Carolina State University (NC State), will support a multidisciplinary research project to understand how individual decision-making around mosquito prevention behaviors impacts disease transmission. The...
This $391,336 National Science Foundation project grant funds research on linking host life history, movement ecology, and climate to predict disease outbreaks in tropical amphibian communities. The Division of Environmental Biology award supports a collaborative research effort between May 2022 and November 2023. Key products include field surveys of infection patterns in diverse amphibian populations across three tropical regions, an experimental manipulation of rainfall variability to test...
This $130,064 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports collaborative research to develop new statistical algorithms for analyzing spatiotemporal data on vector-borne disease transmission, using dengue virus in Rio de Janeiro as a case study. The project aims to address methodological challenges in modeling complex, nonlinear, and partially-observed spatial-temporal systems, with the goal of...
