| Abstract | This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2024, Broadening Participation of Groups Underrepresented in Biology. The Fellowship supports a research and training plan for the Fellow that will increase the participation of groups underrepresented in biology. Selfish elements are genes that provide germline stem cells (GSCs), which produce sperm in males, with a competitive advantage over their neighbors. This allows GSCs to transmit their genes at an exceptionally |
