- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation will fund $321,072 in research at the Reed Institute under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) from March 2022 through February 2025. The research aims to investigate the evolutionary and biological basis of physical and behavioral traits that are sex-biased toward male or female expression across multiple levels of biological organization. Researchers will study global hormone levels, metabolic enzymes, hormone...
- This three-year, two hundred forty thousand dollar project grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research examining the evolution of endocrine and behavioral phenotypes in recently diverged stickleback fish populations. The fellow will compare differences in neural hormone sensitivity, hormone production pathways, and conduct functional genetic tests to uncover how novel parental care behaviors emerge within and between populations...
- This Project Grant award of $400,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) supports research on how maternal hormones shape behavioral variation in offspring. The project, titled "DEVELOPMENTAL PROGRAMMING OF BEHAVIOR BY MATERNAL HORMONES," will be carried out by the University of Oklahoma from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2030. The research aims to identify gene networks in the hypothalamus that are sensitive to early testosterone...
- This Project Grant award for $639,298.00 from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research by the University of California, Santa Cruz to investigate how conflicting maternal and paternal cues influence the evolution of transgenerational plasticity in offspring traits. The research uses theoretical models and laboratory experiments to explore how offspring respond when parents experience different environments, and whether parents...
- This Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) Federal Grant Program. The grant, awarded on September 15, 2025, totals $611,195.00 and aims to investigate how neuronal circuits in the brain influence mating behaviors and contribute to the formation of new species (speciation) in upland chorus frogs. The research project, conducted by the University of Utah, will explore the relationship between auditory neural circuits and...
- The University of California, Davis was awarded a three-year, $1.13 million Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Integrative Organismal Systems. The grant funds research under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to disentangle the developmental drivers of behavioral individuality using a clonal fish model. The research aims to increase scientific knowledge and enhance understanding of major problems confronting the Nation by promoting progress in the...
- This National Science Foundation Project Grant award of $218,472 provides funding from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 to develop molecular tools for exploring mating system diversity in salamanders. The award is made under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support basic biological research that strengthens the nation's scientific enterprise. Specifically, the Principal Investigator at the University of North Carolina at Asheville will learn and apply RADcap single...
- This $932,200 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences Program (CFDA 47.074) will support collaborative research at Florida State University to investigate the neurobiology and behavior underlying speciation in upland chorus frogs. The project aims to better understand how changes in brain function and mating behaviors drive the formation of new frog species. Key research activities will include studying neural circuits related to auditory communication...
- This $285,014 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program will fund research to better understand the evolutionary drivers behind the diverse phenotypes (appearances) observed in a species of poison frog, Dendrobates tinctorius. The research aims to identify the genetic factors responsible for these phenotypic differences and characterize the demographic structure of D. tinctorius populations to explore the interplay between...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) is funding a collaborative research project at The Ohio State University (OSU) to study the role of conflicting maternal and paternal cues on the evolution of transgenerational plasticity in offspring. The $441,030 award, which runs from December 1, 2025 to November 30, 2028, will utilize both theoretical models and laboratory experiments to explore how offspring respond to varying...
