This $285,326 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program funds a 3-year community-driven documentation project focused on critically endangered, rarely studied, and infrequently documented languages. The project aims to produce transcribed and translated narratives in an open-access, permanently archived collection, develop a research-enriched, community-based interactive multimedia learning site, and conduct...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports the documentation and interdisciplinary study of three languages with unusual grammatical structures. The $244,516 award, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2028, will result in the development of grammars, lexicons, and transcribed texts for these languages. The project leverages automatic speech recognition technologies and...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support a collaborative research project titled "Biodiversity Dynamics: Linking Broad Scale Remote Sensing with Arthropod Metabarcoding Across a Geological Age Gradient in the Hawaiian Islands." The $167,390 award, effective January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2027, will integrate rapid assessment technologies at the landscape and island level to forecast changes in insect...
This $975,393 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will support a collaborative research project at the University of California, Berkeley. The project aims to integrate rapid assessment technologies, including satellite, helicopter, drone, and ground-based monitoring, with high-throughput arthropod biodiversity sequencing to examine shifts in insect and spider populations across gradients of native and invaded forest habitats in...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $391,927 to document the morphologically complex endangered language spoken by elders in a community where it is in contact with another indigenous language. The key objectives are to create a digital corpus capturing the naturalistic use of the endangered language by fluent elder speakers and to analyze the language's directional systems expressed...
This Project Grant award, titled "INSECT: Insects for a Sustainable Environment and Circular Bioeconomy", is funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Global Centers Program under CFDA 47.079 - Office of International Science and Engineering. The $1,999,915 award, granted on May 1, 2025, supports a 3-year interdisciplinary research initiative to develop sustainable solutions for feed and food production rooted in insect-based biomanufacturing practices. The project aims to...
This Project Grant award of $652,022 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program will fund a collaborative research project focused on linking broad-scale remote sensing with arthropod metabarcoding across a geological age gradient in the Hawaiian Islands. The key products and services to be delivered include: Integrating rapid assessment technologies at the landscape and island level to forecast changes in high-impact insect and spider...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $104,114 to Haverford College to conduct research on the mechanisms underlying human language learning. The research aims to better understand how people construct mental representations of words and learn the morphological and phonological patterns that govern language. The project will develop interpretable computational models and algorithms...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $106,179 to the University of Arizona to advance the development of technologies that support documentation and revitalization of endangered indigenous languages. The project aims to build capacity and infrastructure to create effective, durable, and appropriate language-related technologies within indigenous communities. Key products and services include:...
This Project Grant award of $364,196 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program supports a collaborative research project on the emergent properties of biomass pulses and the ant-mediated effects of periodical cicadas on forest ecosystems. The research, led by Lake Forest College, will examine how the synchronized emergence of billions of periodical cicadas every 13 or 17 years in the Eastern U.S. creates a nutrient pulse that impacts the...

This Project Grant award of $375,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports an interdisciplinary research project to document the nomenclature, classification, and use of local arthropod fauna in four endangered language communities. The project team, consisting of linguists, anthropologists, biologists, and community members, will collect and preserve physical specimens, record high-quality digital audio, and create an image bank and illustrated field guides. The research aims to increase knowledge of these understudied semantic domains, illuminate historical patterns of contact and shared beliefs, and leverage computational technologies for language documentation. The project will disseminate results through a physical and virtual museum exhibit, spanning the award period from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027. Gettysburg College, the primary awardee, will collaborate with sub-awardees on this research initiative.
