- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $107,072 to Florida Gulf Coast University to explore a model-data framework for improving predictions of red tide and its impact on respiratory illnesses under changing temperatures. The interdisciplinary research involves experts in modeling, marine ecology, data science, and medicine to better understand the link between red tide, a type of harmful algal bloom, and increased...
- The federal Project Grant award of $153,851 from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program supports research to identify diagnostic biomarkers for Florida red tide exposure in Florida manatees and sea turtles as a model for human exposure. The research aims to quantify and characterize protein abundance changes in the plasma of these marine animals that have been naturally exposed to red tide events, using mass...
- The National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) awarded a Project Grant of $192,927 to Florida State University to develop a model-data integration framework to improve the prediction of red tide occurrences and their link to human respiratory illnesses, such as asthma and pneumonia. The research focuses on the Gulf Coast region, a hotspot for red tides, and involves an interdisciplinary team of experts in modeling, marine ecology, data science, and medicine. The goal is to...
- The University of Florida received a three-year, $330,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation to research the atmospheric processes of microcystins in airborne cyanobacterial aerosols. Funded through NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), this award will support research from August 2021 through July 2024 examining the transport and breakdown of toxins produced by cyanobacteria in atmospheric conditions. As the place of performance, the University will leverage its...
- This $406,843 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health program (CFDA 93.113) supports research at the University of South Florida (USF) to investigate the role of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the bioluminescence signaling of the red tide dinoflagellate Lingulodinium polyedra. The key objectives are to: 1) evaluate the mRNA levels of a target GPCR candidate (RC3) and its effectors using RT-qPCR and...
- The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) awarded a $793,443 Project Grant under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program to Trustees of Tufts College in Massachusetts.
