This $306,409 federal grant award to North Carolina State University (NC State) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is for a research project examining the transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms that regulate early seedling development in plants grown in the space environment. The project aims to understand how plants sense and adapt to changes in their environment, including the unique stresses encountered during space flight and microgravity. This work...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to North Carolina State University, an 1862 Land Grant College and educational institution located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The $330,097.68 grant is for a research project to characterize the role of two protein families that may mediate contacts between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and other organelles, and how these contacts relate to gravity sensing in plants. The research aims to understand how plants...
This is a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) grant awarded to the Noble Research Institute LLC, doing business as Noble Foundation, a non-profit organization. The grant is for $200,149.31 and aims to develop methodology to enable space genomic studies on homogenous plant cell populations. The goal is to better understand how the spaceflight environment, particularly microgravity, influences gene expression in plants, which is critical for supporting long-duration space...
This is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Noble Research Institute LLC, doing business as the Noble Foundation, a non-profit organization. The $167,362.96 grant is for research to study how plants respond to microgravity conditions, with the goal of enabling the use of plants in long-duration space exploration. The research focuses on understanding how the plant cytoskeleton and cell wall composition regulate root growth directionality in true and...
This is a $3,572,400.39 training grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to North Carolina State University (NC State) under the NASA/Industry Internship/Fellowship/Scholarship Program.
