- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $802,385 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Massachusetts, through its Office of Grant & Contract Administration, for a 4-year research project. The project aims to examine the feedback between the physiological performance and social foraging behavior of wintering songbird populations. The research will: (1) quantify the effects of physiological variation on social network stability; (2)...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) project grant, awarded to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) for $421,043, aims to advance the understanding of neural mechanisms that allow wild songbirds to adapt their behavior to urban environments. The research will leverage brain transcriptomics and gene manipulation tools to characterize differences in brain gene networks associated with behavioral adjustments in urban male song...
- This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at Colorado State University (CSU) to investigate the potential role of migratory songbirds as pollinators in North America. The $329,069 award, granted on February 15, 2025, will support a study examining the characteristics and environmental factors associated with songbirds carrying pollen, the plant morphological traits linked to flower-foraging by birds, and the...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $779,001 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) on May 1, 2024. The grant supports a 3-year research study examining the adaptive benefits of daylight availability and the photoperiodism of transhemispheric migratory birds. The research aims to determine if longer summer daylight at higher latitudes accelerates parental provisioning and offspring growth...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $856,412 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska (the University) to conduct research exploring the feedback between the physiological performance and social foraging dynamics of wintering songbirds. The project aims to: (1) quantify the effects of physiological variation on social network stability in response to ambient temperature changes; (2) experimentally...
- This $297,323 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Environmental Biology under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program. The funding supports a collaborative research project to study how habitat structure, specifically the spatial arrangement of plants and resources, impacts avian biodiversity across local to continental scales. Using airborne and satellite Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensors, the project will explore the...
- This two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Biological Infrastructure provides $138,000 in funding to support research contributions to variation in fitness in a wild bird population. The award period is from July 2021 through June 2023. The grant was awarded under the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the nation's scientific enterprise through increasing knowledge and...
- This $532,655 multi-year Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research at Utah State University (USU) to deepen the understanding of how birds respond to their environmental surroundings.
