This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral research fellowship examining social interdependence in primate species. The research, conducted by an early-career scientist under the sponsorship of Drs. Joan Silk and Jason Kamilar at Arizona State University, aims to: Quantify how kinship, social status, and reproductive interests shape social relationships within and across primate...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) provides $128,798 to Northern Kentucky University to conduct a longitudinal assessment of the impact of early life adversity on the development of social behavior in a non-human primate species. The study aims to contribute to the understanding of the evolution of the juvenile period and the proximate mechanisms underlying the relationship between early life...
This $452,989 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at California State University, Long Beach to examine the evolutionary demography of rhesus macaques. The project aims to understand how social factors impact individual phenotypes and life history traits in the population over time. Researchers will characterize physical and cognitive traits across macaque lifespans and relate these to social status. They will develop...
This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075), provides $329,849 to San Diego State University Research Foundation to study factors affecting foraging and provisioning decisions in rapidly changing landscapes. The research will examine how human-modified habitats shape macaque behavior in agricultural intensification contexts and people's...
This $100,000 National Science Foundation project grant through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) funds research into the coloration of primate infants and its social and ecological functions. New York University will lead a collaborative effort to create a standardized image database of primate species alongside life history and social data. Researchers will objectively measure the color of hundreds of primate infants from over 80 species throughout development using calibrated...
This $499,998 project grant from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on assessing adaptive and maladaptive stress responses in wild capuchin monkeys. The study, led by the University of Michigan, aims to: 1) measure variation in glucocorticoid levels in the monkeys before and after known social and ecological stressors; 2) quantify each individual's unique stress response; 3) determine if these responses are...
This $194,926 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) supports collaborative research to advance knowledge about the origins of apes and humans during the Oligocene epoch. A multidisciplinary team of paleoanthropologists, geologists, and paleontologists is conducting excavations and analyzing fossils and paleoenvironmental data from a unique fossil-bearing site. The primary objectives are to:...
This three-year National Science Foundation Project Grant of $199,996 supports research into how wild redtail monkeys make nutritional decisions across variable forest environments. The awardee, the Research Foundation of the City University of New York on behalf of Hunter College, will investigate feeding behavior, diet compositions, and gut microbiomes as monkeys experience disparate nutritional conditions in three forests. Behavioral observations, dietary analysis, and microbiome...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $115,140 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) to Stony Brook University. The grant supports a 3-year collaborative research project to uncover the adaptive origins of fossil apes through a multidisciplinary approach. The key products and services to be delivered include: Collecting fossil primate and other animal specimens through extensive field...
This $146,000 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a collaborative research project to advance understanding of hominoid and hominin evolution. The project focuses on retrieving fossil, paleoenvironmental, and geological data from 6-million-year-old paleontological sites in Africa. Key activities include intensive paleontological recovery, paleoenvironmental reconstruction through multiple...
