The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $118,081 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program to The Trustees of Princeton University. The grant supports a collaborative research project titled "PACSP Tools: Identifying Unique Genotypic and Phenotypic Characteristics of Gulf Coast Canids to Revive Genomic Variation in the Endangered Red Wolf." The project aims to characterize the ecology and population dynamics of Gulf Coast canids that carry varying...
This National Science Foundation project grant award of $414,000 provides funding from September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025 to support a postdoctoral fellowship in biology. The fellowship will fund research under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to investigate evolutionary mechanisms that maintain genomic divergence and facilitate local adaptation in gray wolves. The fellow will analyze approximately 1,000 gray wolf genome sequences combined with environmental...
This $414,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports integrative research investigating the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environment and phenotypes through June 2025. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the award enables a postdoctoral fellowship in biology at North Carolina State University to examine patterns of natural selection in gray wolf populations within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. By combining genomic and epigenetic...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences, under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050), provides $137,159 to support collaborative research investigating Pleistocene carnivore ecology and modern wolf populations. The University of California, Berkeley will lead efforts to study dire wolf and coyote dietary patterns at the McKittick asphalt seep and Rancho La Brea tar pits fossil sites to determine food web relationships and compare...
This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service under the Endangered Species Recovery Implementation program (CFDA 15.657) provides $182,748.83 to the Metropolitan Park District of Tacoma, also known as Metro Parks Tacoma, to maintain the captive Red Wolf breeding program. The goal is to maximize the genetic diversity and growth of the Red Wolf population towards recovery plan targets, as well as provide appropriate animals for reintroduction...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) grant award of $300,000 to the University of Wisconsin System provides funding for a 2-year project to explore the proactive, large-scale storage of genes from wildlife populations in the Great Lakes region that are under threat of diminishment or extinction. The key products and services to be delivered under this grant include: Collecting 15 minimally invasive genetic samples from American red foxes and American pine...
This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074), aims to investigate the effects of rapid population decline and past conservation management actions on brown bear (Ursus arctos) populations in the lower 48 states. The $511,998 award, effective September 1, 2024, will fund the development of new genetic tools to rapidly sequence and identify individual brown bears using non-invasive samples. The research will...
This three-year, $346,278 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Earth Sciences Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support collaborative research investigating Pleistocene carnivore ecology using fossil records from the McKittick asphalt seep and Rancho La Brea tar pits lagerstatte sites. The researchers will examine dietary patterns in dire wolves and coyotes through ecomorphology, tooth wear analysis, stable isotope analysis, and geochronology to determine food...
