NSF Young Investigator

小行星9458350 这个NYI奖是为了支持乔纳森·盖勒对海洋生物多样性的研究。他独特的背景结合了传统的海洋进化生态学和现代分子生物学。他将使用这两个在他的兄弟物种（两个或两个以上的物种，不能或没有被形态分离），和海洋无脊椎动物新灭绝和生物入侵对多样性的影响的研究。他的训练使他在这个新兴的跨学科领域的最前沿，他正在解决的问题是重要的社会和科学。他开始在研究生院教书，并一直成功至今。 他在NYI期间的计划包括本科教学，研究生教学和定向研究，其中他将强调接触研究方法和当前文献。

9458350 Geller This NYI award is to support Jonathan Geller's research on Marine Biodiversity. His unique background combines traditional marine evolutionary ecology with modern molecular biology. He will use both in his research on sibling species (two or more species that cannot be or have not been morphologically separated), and marine invertebrate neoextinction and the effects of biological invasion on diversity. His training puts him at the forefront of this emerging cross-disciplinary field, and the problems he is addressing are important socially and scientifically. He started teaching in graduate school, and has continued successfully ever since. His plans during the NYI include undergraduate teaching, graduate teaching and directed research, in which he will stress exposure to research methods and current literature.
