What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research in conducting research on Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The overall goal is to determine the molecular mechanisms that drive the accumulation of PFAS in fish.
