This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biological Informatics for FY2002. The fellowship supports research and training at the postdoctoral level at the intersection of biology and the informational, computational, mathematical, and statistical sciences. The goal of the fellowship is to provide training to a young scientist in preparation for a career in biological informatics in which research and education will be integrated. There is an increasing need for training in biological informatics at all occupational levels, and it is expected that Fellows trained through these fellowships will play important roles in training the future workforce.The research and training plan for this fellowship is entitled "The directionality of acoustic communication in passerine birds." The goal of the research is to develop a system for mapping the radiation of sound from vocalizing animals. The system is to be used to measure the directionality of different call types from passerine birds in open and forest habitats, and to test hypotheses about the functional significance of directionality in acoustic communication.

这一行动为NSF 2002财年生物信息学博士后研究奖学金提供了资金。该奖学金支持生物学与信息科学、计算科学、数学科学和统计科学交叉的博士后水平的研究和培训。该研究金的目标是为一名年轻科学家提供培训，以便为从事生物信息学研究和教育相结合的职业做准备。各个职业层次对生物信息学的培训需求日益增加，预计通过这些奖学金培训的研究员将在培训未来的劳动力方面发挥重要作用。该奖学金的研究和培训计划题为“雀形目鸟类声通信的方向性”。这项研究的目标是开发一种系统，用于绘制发声动物的声音辐射图。该系统将用于测量露天和森林生境中雀形目鸟类不同叫声类型的方向性，并测试关于方向性在声音通信中的功能意义的假设。
