This $130,064 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports collaborative research to develop new statistical algorithms for analyzing spatiotemporal data on vector-borne disease transmission, using dengue virus in Rio de Janeiro as a case study. The project aims to address methodological challenges in modeling complex, nonlinear, and partially-observed spatial-temporal systems, with the goal of...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, with the CFDA number 47.070, provides $174,544 to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNC Charlotte) to develop an integrated geospatial framework using advanced machine learning techniques to map disease transmission risk for mosquito-borne illnesses in Southern Africa. The key products and services to be delivered under this 2-year award include:...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) Project Grant of $246,620 awarded to The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) will fund the development of novel mathematical models for Wolbachia-based strategies to control mosquito-borne diseases like dengue fever, malaria, chikungunya, and Zika. The multi-stage models will account for the complex transmission dynamics, spatial and temporal heterogeneity, and Wolbachia's biological...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), aims to investigate the role of human behavior in the dynamics of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and Zika. The $100,000 grant, awarded to North Carolina State University (NC State), will support a multidisciplinary research project to understand how individual decision-making around mosquito prevention behaviors impacts disease transmission. The...
This Project Grant award, with a total funding of $284,868, was provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) under the Science (CFDA 43.001) federal grant program. The grant aims to execute a balanced science program focused on scientific research of the moon, lunar orbit, Mars, and beyond, advancing discovery in emerging fields, and developing a target-user focused approach to applied programs. The primary awardee, the University of...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) provides $329,039.00 to the University of Florida to conduct research on the dispersal biology and population genetics of the invasive Aedes aegypti mosquito. The key objectives are to: (1) determine the genetic relatedness and effective population size of Ae. aegypti populations from diverse environments, and (2) identify genes under...
This $196,163 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) is funding a collaborative research project on developing advanced mathematical models to improve understanding and management of schistosomiasis transmission dynamics. The project is a collaboration between the University of Florida, University of Georgia, and University of Massachusetts, and aims to create innovative hybrid...
This Project Grant award of $651,084, made by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports research to determine how microbes influence the response of their mosquito host to climate change, with a focus on the impacts on Hawaiian honeycreepers, an endangered bird species. The research aims to: Clarify the landscape-scale population dynamics of the mosquito vector Culex quinquefasciatus and its microbiome across an elevational gradient in Hawaii....
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $977,779 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to investigate how climate change and land use shifts may impact the synchronization between mosquito vectors and bird hosts, and the implications for West Nile Virus transmission. The research will leverage a combination of modeling, causal inference, citizen science, and field data collection to understand how...
The University of Florida was awarded a $100,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to study vector-borne disease dynamics in a lizard-malaria system in Puerto Rico. The research project, titled "CAREER: Heterogeneity in Lizard-Malaria Transmission: An Interdisciplinary Research and Educational Approach," integrates mathematical modeling and ecological experiments to understand how factors like individual...
