This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000 supports a postdoctoral research fellowship under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program. The research focuses on investigating the "escalator to extinction" - the process by which montane specialist species shift their distributions to higher elevations in response to warming climates, leading to mountain top extinctions. The project will use long-term data analysis and field experiments to establish the...
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 award, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $240,000 in funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2028. The fellowship supports research and training focused on investigating the rules governing interactions between genomes, environment, and phenotypes of lichen holobionts (the lichen organism and its associated microbiome) in response to climate change. The key objectives are to:...
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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant award of $270,000 supports a postdoctoral fellowship focused on exploring the interactions between plants, animals, and people in a complex forest ecosystem in Madagascar. The research will use genetic and statistical tools to study relationships between species, with the goal of understanding how habitat changes impact the health and stability of the ecosystem. The fellowship will provide the researcher...
