9505429 Austin This award is under the International Junior Investigator and Postdoctoral Fellows Program, which enables U.S. scientists and engineers to conduct three to twenty-four months of research abroad at research centers of proven excellence. The program's awards provide opportunities for joint research, and the use of unique or complementary facilities, expertise and experimental conditions abroad. Financial support for this award is from the East Asia Pacific Program. This award will support a twenty-four-month postdoctoral research visit by Dr. Christopher C. Austin to work with Dr. Stephen Donnellan at the South Australian Museum in Adelaide, South Australia. Dr. Austin will collect genetic data to examine patterns of colonization and genetic differentiation across the entire geographic range of the skink Lipinia noctua. This species occurs from the Papuan region throughout Oceania to the Hawaiian Islands in the north and the Pitcairn Islands to the south. These data will be used to address questions about the association of molecular and morphological evolutionary rates and the controlling factors in rates of speciation. ***

小行星9505429 该奖项是根据国际初级研究员和博士后研究员计划，使美国科学家和工程师能够在国外进行三到二十四个月的研究，在证明卓越的研究中心。该计划的奖项提供了联合研究的机会，以及使用国外独特或互补的设施，专业知识和实验条件。 该奖项的财政支持来自东亚太平洋计划。 该奖项将支持克里斯托弗C博士为期24个月的博士后研究访问。奥斯汀与斯蒂芬·唐奈兰博士在南澳的阿德莱德南澳大利亚博物馆工作。 奥斯汀博士将收集遗传数据，以检查整个石龙子地理范围内的殖民化和遗传分化模式。 该物种分布于大洋洲的巴布亚地区，北至夏威夷群岛，南至皮特凯恩群岛。 这些数据将被用来解决有关的关联的分子和形态的进化速率和控制因素的物种形成率的问题。***
