This action funds an NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship for FY 2005. The goal of the fellowship is to increase the participation of minority scientists at the postdoctoral level and to prepare them for positions of scientific leadership in US science. To attain this goal, the fellowship provides opportunities for postdoctoral training and research of the highest quality to recent doctoral recipients. It is expected that Fellows supported through these fellowships will play important roles in training of the future workforce.The research and training plan is entitled "Paleoclimate modeling and amphibian phylogeography in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest." By combining climate modeling, DNA, morphological, and call analyses, the research uses frogs to understand diversity and to inform conservation in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Techniques include paleoclimate modeling, phylogeography, and phylogenetics to study how Quaternary climate changes affected Hyla albomarginata, H. faber, H. semilineata and Leptodactylus spixi. The Fellow's training goal is to learn new skills and work collaboratively with researchers in South America, thus furthering her professional expertise for a future career in academia.

这项行动为2005财政年度的NSF少数民族博士后研究奖学金提供资金。该奖学金的目标是增加少数民族科学家在博士后水平的参与，并为他们在美国科学的科学领导地位做好准备。为了实现这一目标，奖学金提供了最高质量的博士后培训和研究的机会，以最近的博士获奖者。 预计通过这些研究金资助的研究员将在培训未来的劳动力方面发挥重要作用，研究和培训计划题为“巴西大西洋森林的古气候建模和两栖动物生态地理学”。“通过结合气候建模，DNA，形态和呼叫分析，该研究利用青蛙来了解多样性，并为巴西大西洋森林的保护提供信息。 技术包括古气候建模，气候地理学和气候遗传学研究第四纪气候变化如何影响白额雨蛙，H。faber，H. semilineata和Leptodactylus spixi。 研究员的培训目标是学习新技能，并与南美洲的研究人员合作，从而为未来的学术生涯进一步提高她的专业知识。
