Project Grant 2409984
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $240,000 in funding from February 1, 2024 to January 31, 2027 to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on investigating a novel circadian time-keeping mechanism revealed by environmental manipulation. The research plan aims to identify the location in the brain and the mechanism of a non-canonical clock that can rescue daily rhythms in mice with disrupted central clock...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to fund an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2023. The purpose of the fellowship is to increase the participation of groups underrepresented in biology. The fellow's proposed studies will investigate interactions between migratory and resident bird species during spring migration stopover periods, which have implications for migration ecology, climate...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026 to support research examining the genetic, physiological, and environmental drivers of plant-pollinator niche dynamics across scales of biological organization. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of...
- This Project Grant award for $270,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2025. The fellowship supports research and training that will contribute to biology in innovative ways, exploring how plants, animals, and people interact and shape their habitats. The fellow will use genetic and statistical tools to study relationships between species in a complex forest ecosystem, with the...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides USD 240,000 in funding from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026. The award supports an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology to study the relationship between pollinator thermal performance and limitation in apple production in the Midwestern US. The research project aims to determine which pollinator groups (e.g., honey bees, bumble bees, solitary bees) are best...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (CFDA 47.074), awarded on October 1, 2025, provides $270,000 in funding through the Division of Biological Infrastructure to support a three-year research project (completion date: September 30, 2028) examining biodiversity in hybrid plant-insect systems. The fellowship supports empirical research testing the hybrid bridge hypothesis using oak trees and cynipid gall wasps as a model system. The research...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences) provides $240,000 to fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2024. The fellowship supports a research and training plan that aims to enhance understanding of human-wildlife interactions in the face of global change, with a focus on birds worldwide. The fellow will develop a new modeling framework and global database to predict human-wildlife interactions and determine key drivers....
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship to study the impacts of climate change on insect phenotypes, populations, and communities. The research aims to: 1) build a model to estimate how insect traits like body size and developmental timing respond to temperature variation, 2) quantify how these phenotypic changes affect population dynamics, and 3) determine how...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) that will investigate plant-butterfly dynamics across changing landscapes. The research project will address how variation in habitat quality affects native plant-butterfly networks, including several butterfly species known to migrate between the western United States and Mexico. The research...
- The National Science Foundation awarded $414,000 under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to support an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2025. The fellowship funding will support integrative research investigating the intersection of genomes, environments, and phenotypes in elevational migrant bird species across the Andes and Himalayas. The fellow will generate valuable museum specimens including frozen tissues and genomic,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $240,000 provides funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate how artificial light at night (ALAN) impacts the interactions between night-blooming plants and nocturnal hawkmoth pollinators. The 3-year fellowship, beginning October 1, 2024, will study the effects of ALAN on the molecular, physiological, and behavioral rhythms of hawkmoths, as well as the impact on plant scent production to attract pollinators. The project will also conduct a field experiment to evaluate how ALAN may rewire the community-level interactions between these species. The fellowship will provide training in transcriptomics, sensory biology, and community ecology, while also mentoring undergraduate students and conducting outreach to educate the public about light pollution. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
