This $423,626 Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program, supports a research project at Montclair State University to investigate the neurobiology of cognition and emotion in teleost (bony) fish. The key objectives are to: 1) Refine a behavioral paradigm to study associative emotional learning in zebrafish and visualize the functional connectivity of activated neurons in the amygdala and forebrain; and 2) Implement spatial...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000 from June 15, 2023 to May 31, 2026 supports an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The research aims to study the evolution and development of retinal specializations in fish, which can help understand how the environment and development shape the biology and evolution of the eye. The key products of this project include: 1) evolutionary genomics and...
This Project Grant award of $450,000 from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) supports an international research project titled "IRES: AQUATIC BRIGHT SPOTS: ECOLOGICAL RESILIENCE IN NORTHERN LAKES AND RIVERS". The project, awarded to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, aims to investigate the factors contributing to the resilience of aquatic ecosystems in northern Mongolia despite the impacts of climate change. Over 3 years...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $434,716 to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center to develop a set of optical tools for capturing and interpreting high-speed recordings of neural activity across the entire zebrafish brain. The key objectives are to create fluorescent voltage sensors, optical microscopes, and signal processing algorithms that can simultaneously monitor millisecond-scale bursts of neural...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems, under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074), provides $468,934 to the University of Massachusetts Boston from April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2026. The funding will support research into collective timing decisions in schooling fish, with a focus on how leadership emerges and consensus is reached within groups. Specifically, the award will develop two tracking systems to...
This $298,134 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research exploring the role of environmental nitrite and nitric oxide in modulating olfactory function in goldfish. Principal investigator Texas State University will study how goldfish uptake nitrogenous compounds in their noses, how nitric oxide is generated to control neuronal activity even under low-oxygen conditions, and whether nitric oxide can be produced through...
This Project Grant award of $1,140,828 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, effective August 1, 2024. The purpose of the award is to generate novel network analysis tools to elucidate the functional logic of 3D vision circuits in the Drosophila (fruit fly) brain. The project aims to shed light on the relationship between microsaccades (small-scale eye movements) and 3D...
This $644,498 award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund research at Rutgers, The State University to contribute new knowledge related to multi-agent autonomous systems. The project aims to uncover the feedback principles governing visuomotor control dynamics in fish schools to provide a blueprint for achieving full autonomy in artificial systems. The research involves gaining insights on individual fish navigation principles, understanding the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) project grant, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), supports collaborative research on the mechanisms that regulate co-transmission of multiple neurotransmitters in fruit flies. The $502,569 award to the University of Montana, effective October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2028, will leverage cutting-edge techniques to examine how neurons that co-release glutamate and octopamine are impacted by sexual dimorphism and social isolation....
This $1,155,315 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports research to examine the role of redox signaling in regulating the highly adaptable phototransduction signaling cascade in the Drosophila (fruit fly) visual system. The project aims to understand how blue light-induced redox changes in key phototransduction proteins can modulate the sensitivity and frequency response of this G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) pathway,...
