This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program provides $270,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on mapping the social network dynamics of bumblebees. The research will leverage deep learning techniques to track the movement and interactions of bumblebees within colonies, with the goal of elucidating how individual variation, colony size, and communication patterns impact the overall social network....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on investigating the role of symbiotic yeasts in structuring bumble bee nest microbial communities. The research aims to uncover how antimicrobial compounds produced by these yeasts impact the growth of detrimental microbes, bee health, and bee behavior. Key activities include testing variations in...
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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a postdoctoral research fellowship in biology from July 2024 to June 2027. The fellowship will investigate how honeybee swarms utilize local information to adapt their internal and external structures in response to environmental perturbations such as wind, rain, and temperature changes. The research will involve experimental studies using X-ray...
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 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...
This $654,761 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant awarded to the Chicago Horticultural Society's Chicago Botanic Garden division will investigate how bee populations respond to rapid environmental changes. The researchers will use in-situ temperature manipulations and cross-population comparisons to measure the direct and indirect effects of climate change, including impacts mediated through changes in food resources and nest parasites, on vital...
