About this award

The University of Colorado, through its Office of Contracts and Grants Division, received a $16.7K firm fixed-price delivery order from NASA's Johnson Space Center for advanced microscopy sessions supporting the European Space Agency's Rotifer B2 investigation. Awarded on May 7, 2024, with completion targeted for August 31, 2025, this delivery order will be performed in Boulder, Colorado. The contract carries no set-aside designation, reflecting the university's competitive standing as a research institution. This delivery order falls under the university's larger $15 million Indefinite Delivery Contract with Johnson Space Center for Low Earth Orbit Space Life Science Research Platform services, which provides flexible mechanisms for delivering specialized research capabilities and mission support essential to NASA's space-based scientific investigations.

The microscopy sessions will contribute to microgravity research efforts focused on rotifer organisms, a common biological model system used in space-based investigations to understand fundamental life processes in weightless environments. The University of Colorado maintains an extensive portfolio of NASA contracts and grants spanning space life sciences, microgravity research payload support, and in-space manufacturing initiatives. This engagement aligns with Johnson Space Center's broader mission to advance fundamental biological research through the International Space Station and related orbital platforms, leveraging the university's established expertise in space life science research and specialized analytical capabilities.
