UC Merced has received a $12.5 million grant funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop the Biology Integration Institute (BII): INSITE — the INstitute for Symbiotic Interactions, Training and Education — a research collaborative that aims to expand the fundamental knowledge of symbioses and inform immediate and long-term conservation strategies in the face of climate change.

The specific goal of Theme II is to extend the results of Theme I’s focus on the immediate impact of climate change on fitness and acclimatization to understand how our model systems will adapt and evolve to new environmental conditions over long-term exposure.

The goal of Theme III is to create a generalizable framework that combines short-term acclimatization (Theme I) and long-term adaptability data and models (Theme II) to predict the effect of climate change across the closed-open-complex symbiosis spectrum for all species.
