About this award

The Regents of the University of Colorado, Boulder, has been awarded a $507,000 firm fixed-price delivery order by NASA's Johnson Space Center to conduct research on the effects of age on the mechanochemical feedback loop for extracellular matrix production by fibroblasts in the context of wound healing. This delivery order, issued on October 12, 2023, is scheduled for completion by February 20, 2027, with performance taking place in Boulder, Colorado. The award carries no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's competitive standing in federal research. This delivery order is issued under the university's larger $15 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with NASA's Johnson Space Center for the Low Earth Orbit Space Life Science Research Platform, which provides the university with a flexible mechanism to support NASA's space-based scientific investigations.

The research initiative investigates physiological responses relevant to long-duration spaceflight, as aging and microgravity conditions both affect fibroblast function and wound healing capacity—critical considerations for astronaut health and exploration missions. The University of Colorado's Office of Contracts and Grants is delivering this specialized research capability as part of NASA's broader portfolio of life sciences research programs conducted on orbital platforms. The university brings extensive expertise in biomedical and health-related research, supported by substantial funding from the National Institutes of Health and other federal agencies, making it well-positioned to advance NASA's mission-critical research objectives in understanding cellular and tissue responses in space environments.
