This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $500,000 to Carleton College from October 1, 2022 through August 31, 2027 to develop a modeling framework for understanding parasite transmission dynamics. The project aims to link ecology, behavior, immunology and spatial/temporal variation to better predict the spread of helminth parasites through multiple host species, including fish-eating birds, copepods, and threespine stickleback...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under CFDA Program 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research, will support research to investigate the genetic mechanisms that determine host susceptibility to low virulence strains of the Toxoplasma gondii parasite in mice. The $269,054 award, effective November 8, 2024 through October 31, 2026, will enable researchers at the University of California, Merced to leverage the...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant, awarded to New York University (NYU) on August 1, 2024, provides $552,466 in funding over a 3-year period to conduct collaborative research on the phylogeny, systematics, and adaptation of marine epizoic diatoms to endangered megafaunal hosts. The key objectives of this project are to: 1) document and describe up to 50 new diatom species living on marine animals like sea turtles, whales, and manatees;...
This $899,961 Project Grant awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (CFDA 11.427 Fisheries Development and Utilization Research and Development Grants and Cooperative Agreements Program) will support a research project at Stony Brook University to address knowledge gaps related to factors that can impact disease development and mortality in a major local fishery in the Northeast region. The project aims to provide information on the distribution of the parasite, as well as...
This Project Grant award of $1,180,755, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) federal grant program, supports research to investigate the evolutionary transition of host-microbe interactions from commensal symbionts to blood parasites. The research will use a combination of microscopy and genomics to compare the invasion machinery between related virulent pathogens and mutualistic members of Apicomplexa, which includes the parasites that...
This $918,053 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports fundamental and applied research to document and characterize the diverse communities of marine epizoic diatoms living on endangered marine megafauna. The overall project objectives are to: 1) describe and formally document up to 50 new species of epizoic diatoms; 2) reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of these diatoms to understand their evolution and...
This $196,163 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) is funding a collaborative research project on developing advanced mathematical models to improve understanding and management of schistosomiasis transmission dynamics. The project is a collaboration between the University of Florida, University of Georgia, and University of Massachusetts, and aims to create innovative hybrid...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) focuses on understanding how changing environmental conditions, particularly rising ocean temperatures, will impact marine ecosystems and the availability of marine resources. The $738,152 award, effective June 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, supports an integrated approach that combines physiological assays, community-level experiments, and numerical modeling to forecast the effects of temperature on...
This $671,535 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research examining the recovery trajectories of prey communities after the removal of non-native predator species, such as fish, from mountain lakes in the Sierra Nevada region of California. The key objectives are to elucidate the connections between taxonomic and functional recovery of these ecosystems, identify indicators of community vulnerability based on...
This $714,816 National Science Foundation project grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at the University of Washington from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025. The research aims to better understand how environmental health disparities in urban areas impact the trophic and disease dynamics of carnivore populations. Specifically, the project will examine links between toxicant exposure, altered diets, and disease risk for urban carnivores in...
