This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences (CFDA 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences) provides $249,798 to Texas Tech University System to conduct collaborative research on structured population dynamics subject to stoichiometric constraints. The objectives are to design laboratory experiments and develop novel mathematical models that incorporate age/stage-specific nutritional constraints on growth, maturation, and reproduction....
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...
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...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), will fund fundamental research on mathematical models that describe complex interactions, growth, and motion in random, irregular environments. The $200,000 award, effective from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027, aims to discover general mathematical laws governing such stochastic systems, which have applications in diverse areas like traffic flow, communication...
