Multiple National Science Foundation (NSF) grants have supported the GMPD over nearly two decades, including the following: DEB-0211908, EF-0723939/0904359, BCS-1355902. We also thank the Center for Applied Biodiversity Science at Conservation International for funding, and the NSF for their support of a Research Coordination Network on "The Macroecology of Infectious Disease" (DEB 1316223, PI: Patrick Stephens).

Funding provided by the joint NIH-NSF-NIFA Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Disease award R01TW011493 will support further development and analysis of the GPPD
