This $794,457 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support the development of new genetic analysis tools. The goal is to incorporate molecular and cellular biology knowledge, such as gene expression patterns and regulatory networks, directly into statistical models used to map genes, predict traits, and simulate changes in the genotype-to-phenotype relationships. The research will be conducted using simulated...
This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $177,469.00 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Grant Program (CFDA #47.049). The award will support research into the geometry of moduli spaces from low-dimensional topology and applications, with a focus on three main directions: studying higher algebraic structures in instanton Floer homology, analyzing the properties of generalized Seiberg-Witten equations, and exploring the...
This $300,804 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the University of Rochester. The project, titled "Collaborative Research: Novel Computational Methods to Examine Students' Concepts of Biological Variability," will investigate how children and adults understand the concept of biological variability within species. The researchers will use an adaptive computational modeling approach called...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program provides $240,000 in funding from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027 to conduct research on the evolutionary dynamics of recombination landscapes and adaptive trait architectures across varying degrees of gene flow. The key research objectives are to: (1) generate multiple linkage maps to examine recombination rate as an individual-level phenotype, (2) conduct a...
This $180,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports the development of novel community detection tools and frameworks for analyzing weighted network data, with a focus on applications in bioinformatics and biological science. The primary goals are to identify highly correlated gene modules by leveraging covariance or correlation matrix representations, and to provide a systematic, computationally...
This Project Grant award of $251,118.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program supports a collaborative research project to investigate the shared genetic and cellular mechanisms underlying limb and fin regeneration in vertebrates. The key objectives of the research are to: 1) test whether rapid activation of the mTOR signaling pathway is a conserved feature of limb and fin regeneration, 2) use transcriptomic and epigenetic profiling to...
This $1,174,440.00 federal Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Integrative Organismal Systems (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences), supports collaborative research to identify the shared genetic and cellular mechanisms underlying vertebrate limb and fin regeneration. The research team at Louisiana State University, the prime awardee, is using a comparative approach across three animal models - salamanders, lungfish, and Polypterus - to uncover the core...
