Description

The Division of Integrative Organismal Systems (IOS) Core Programs Track supports research to understand why organisms are structured the way they are and function as they do. Proposals are welcomed in all core scientific program areas supported by IOS, including developmental biology, nervous system evolution, biomechanics, physiological processes, symbioses, genomics, and animal behavior. The program encourages systems approaches to gain conceptual and theoretical insights about emergent organismal properties. Collaborative proposals that integrate multiple biological subdisciplines to produce novel, holistic understandings of biological systems across scales are invited.
