This Project Grant award of $270,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program supports a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate the proximate origins and ecological and evolutionary consequences of resource polyphenism in the Mexican spadefoot toad. The research will examine how plastic responses in tadpole development originate and impact individuals later in life, with the goal of better predicting how organisms can respond to rapid...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 to fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) for FY 2024. The fellowship supports research and training to investigate the rules governing interactions between genomes, environment, and phenotypes across spatial and biological scales. The key objectives are to characterize variation in bioenergetic and behavioral traits, study how this variation...
This $240,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the role of amphibian skin microbiomes in limiting the growth of deadly fungal pathogens. The research aims to explore the mechanisms by which certain skin microbes inhibit the fungal agents responsible for amphibian population declines, and to pilot the use of "antifungal probiotics" to protect...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences) provides $240,000 to fund a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2024. The fellowship supports a research and training plan that aims to enhance understanding of human-wildlife interactions in the face of global change, with a focus on birds worldwide. The fellow will develop a new modeling framework and global database to predict human-wildlife interactions and determine key drivers....
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award of $240,000, funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will support a 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the history and evolution of the amphibian pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (BD). The research aims to: Develop new genetic tools to selectively sequence DNA from BD and its amphibian hosts, even in highly contaminated and fragmented samples. Use these new genetic tools to genotype BD...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support a postdoctoral research fellowship exploring the rules of life governing interactions between genomes, environments, and phenotypes. The fellowship will fund integrative research from November 1, 2023 to October 31, 2026 investigating how genetics, environments, and microbiomes contribute to emergent host phenotypes in green frog tadpoles. Specifically, the fellow...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $240,000 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to fund an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2023. The purpose of the fellowship is to increase the participation of groups underrepresented in biology. The fellow's proposed studies will investigate interactions between migratory and resident bird species during spring migration stopover periods, which have implications for migration ecology, climate...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation provides $207,000 to support a postdoctoral fellowship in biology from March 2021 through February 2024. The funding is awarded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote biological sciences research and enhance understanding of major problems facing the nation. The fellowship will allow the recipient to conduct basic research in biology, advancing scientific knowledge and strengthening the scientific...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under CFDA 47.074 Biological Sciences provides $270,000.00 in funding for a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on the genetic elucidation of a multilayer ecological lemur network in Madagascar. The research aims to study the complex interactions between plants, animals, and humans within this ecosystem, leveraging genetic and statistical tools to better understand species relationships and predict the impacts of habitat changes....
