The National Science Foundation awarded a $1.25 million Project Grant to Texas Tech University under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to fund research from August 2022 to July 2027 defining the mechanisms and consequences of mutualism reorganization in changing environments. The award will support four integrated research aims exploring how plant-fungal mutualisms are reorganized by invasive plant species at multiple scales, from mutualism and population levels to...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $240,000 in funding to support a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology (PRFB) that will investigate plant-butterfly dynamics across changing landscapes. The research project will address how variation in habitat quality affects native plant-butterfly networks, including several butterfly species known to migrate between the western United States and Mexico. The research...
This $261,226 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research to connect ecosystem dynamics with evolutionary genetics. The project aims to analyze ecological models evolving on fitness landscapes and develop computational methods for incorporating phylogenetics to study eco-evolutionary trajectories. Key focus areas include predator-prey and consumer-resource networks relevant to viral evolution,...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $138,000 Project Grant to support research under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2023. The grant funds postdoctoral research at Utah State University in Logan, Utah to study the evolution of extended floral phenotypes. The Biological Sciences program aims to advance the field and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through basic research on major problems. This award will further those goals by...

This $240,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award, with a performance period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, will fund a postdoctoral research fellowship to investigate the role of symbiosis in driving the evolution and diversification of Hawaiian cixiid planthoppers. The research aims to leverage the unique geography and biodiversity of Hawaii to understand how microbial partnerships may contribute to host species diversity...
This Project Grant award of $188,491 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports a collaborative research study on the symbiotic relationship between grasses and their fungal microbes. The primary research objectives are to understand how these host-microbe symbioses influence the health and stability of grass populations, particularly in response to fluctuations in environmental conditions. The study involves a long-term demographic experiment...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant, awarded to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, will test the hypothesis that microbial symbionts affect the evolution of defense traits in their legume plant hosts. The $1,180,492 award, with a period of performance from June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2030, will investigate how the resource exchange between nitrogen-fixing Ensifer bacteria and the legume Medicago lupulina influences the evolution of leaf...
This $483,851 award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support research at the University of Scranton to study factors influencing the prevalence of parasitic infections in birds. The project will collect and analyze parasite specimens from birds and insect vectors in northeastern Pennsylvania to test hypotheses about host traits and ecological interactions that drive parasitism. The research aims to advance understanding of disease...
