The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct research on the role of thermal stress response in facilitating adaptation in camel spiders. The 3-year fellowship, starting November 1, 2024, supports a research and training plan that aims to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in biology. The fellow will use camel spiders as a model to investigate the molecular basis and...
This $276,000 National Science Foundation award under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research and training from August 1, 2022 to July 31, 2024. The fellowship recipient will conduct integrative research investigating the interaction of genomes, environments and phenotypes in evolutionary biology. Specifically, the fellow will study mechanisms connecting short-term plastic behavioral responses to long-term evolutionary change. Using a pupfish system with specialist and...
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 award provides $276,000 to fund a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2025. The fellowship will support research and training on how an insect's overwintering life stage impacts its vulnerability to energy depletion caused by warming winters. The fellow, based in Stockholm, Sweden, will measure energy use rates in nine butterfly species that overwinter as adults, larvae, or pupae. Laboratory experiments will then link...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $207,000 Project Grant to support a postdoctoral fellowship in biology from February 1, 2021 through January 31, 2024. The grant was awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct research on the development and evolution of olfactory perception in response to temperature changes. The fellowship funding will allow the recipient to study how environmental temperature impacts the ability of organisms to detect smells and pheromones,...
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 Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biology award for $276,000 provides funding from November 1, 2022 to October 31, 2024 to investigate the endocrine and neurogenomic regulation of male parental care strategies in songbirds. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the fellow will examine how variation in testosterone and prolactin hormones mediate male life history strategies and parental behaviors. Field research will be conducted at sites along a...
This National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology award for $240,000 will fund research from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026 exploring the role of hybridization on diet breadth evolution in the fall webworm. The fellowship recipient will conduct laboratory and field experiments in collaboration with veterans from the community college system to assess the influence of hybridization on diet breadth in two genetically distinct biotypes of the fall webworm...
