This $500,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University). The grant funds a research project titled "Enumerative Combinatorics of Phylogenetic Trees and Networks" that develops advanced combinatorial mathematics to enhance the fundamental understanding of phylogenetic trees and networks. This research aims to contribute new mathematical concepts and analysis approaches that can benefit diverse biological disciplines, from evolution to cancer biology, by improving the interpretation and construction of phylogenetic structures that describe organismal relationships. The project's interdisciplinary focus spans mathematics, computer science, and biology, leveraging methods from enumerative combinatorics, analysis of algorithms, and analytic combinatorics. The research is scheduled to be conducted over a 4-year period from August 2025 to July 2029.
