This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 to fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) for FY 2024. The fellowship supports research and training to investigate the rules governing interactions between genomes, environment, and phenotypes across spatial and biological scales. The key objectives are to characterize variation in bioenergetic and behavioral traits, study how this variation...
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). The fellowship will fund research and training that investigates how DNA transfer drives ecological relationships across different levels of biological organization. The project aims to uncover patterns of DNA transfers within microbial communities and use this information to model past and...
This $782,754 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research effort to study the environmental factors influencing the fate and transport of environmental DNA (eDNA) in U.S. streams, particularly those within the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON). The project, titled "DISTANCE: Determining Instream Transport of eDNA Across NEON Sites at the Continental Scale," will leverage NEON...
This $418,390 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports collaborative research to study the environmental factors that promote or inhibit the transport and degradation of environmental DNA (eDNA) in U.S. streams, especially those part of the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON). The research team based at the University of Alabama will conduct eDNA spiraling experiments at NEON stream sites to determine how factors...
This $748,856 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a collaborative research study on using environmental DNA (eDNA) to measure biodiversity in U.S. streams, particularly those in the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON). The study, led by The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State), aims to understand the environmental factors that influence the movement and degradation of eDNA in streams. Key...
