- This federal contract award, with ID NNX16AL36G, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, MA. The $1,066,991.00 grant funds a research study on the musculoskeletal response of rats exposed to varying levels of partial gravity, from 0.2G to 0.7G, to better understand the impact on muscle atrophy and bone loss. This research aims to inform the development of...
- This is a $686,978 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant is for a research project to determine the effects of varying partial gravity levels on bone, muscle, and soft tissues of the hip and knee joints in adult mice flown aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The research aims to assess whether partial gravity, either induced...
- This federal contract award is a $140,000.00 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a not-for-profit academic medical center located in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant will fund a postdoctoral fellowship to evaluate the impact of sex hormones on neuronal and musculoskeletal health in micro and Martian gravity environments using naive and castrated/ovariectomized male and female rats. The...
- This federal contract award, with an ID of 80NSSC20K1147, was granted by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. The $378,294.83 grant is for research to better understand the musculoskeletal response to longer duration spaceflight, as previous rodent studies have been limited to 2-week missions. The award is not designated as a set-aside contract. Bidmc, as a teaching...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC19K0567, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (Bidmc), a prominent academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. The contract, valued at $1,959,734.00, is for the "Time Course of Spaceflight Induced Adaptations in Bone Morphology, Bone Strength and Muscle Mass Quality" research project, which was selected in response to NASA's Human Exploration Research...
- Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC), a Harvard Medical School-affiliated academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts, received a $784,445 research grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on February 1, 2021. This grant supports a definition phase study investigating resveratrol and electrical muscle stimulation as countermeasures to preserve sensorimotor function during a 60-day head-down bedrest protocol. The award carries an ultimate...
- This federal contract award was granted by the Shared Services Center (part of NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a major academic medical center in Boston, MA. The $254,434 grant is for a research project titled "Vertebral Strength and Fracture Risk Following Long Duration Spaceflight". The objective is to assess changes in bone density and strength of astronauts' lumbar vertebrae using quantitative computed tomography (QCT) scans, in order to determine the...
- Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc., a Harvard Medical School-affiliated academic medical center located in Boston, Massachusetts, was awarded a $900K research grant on April 1, 2023, to investigate the acute and long-term effects of combined radiation and partial gravity unloading on neurological and musculoskeletal systems. The research will utilize male and female rats to evaluate separate and combined effects of simulated galactic cosmic rays and lunar gravity conditions (20%...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC20K1500, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The General Hospital Corporation (MGH) to conduct research on understanding human performance under various partial-gravity loadings. The $400,000 grant aims to support NASA's crewed mission strategies, particularly for Mars landings, which require the crew to use robotic teleoperation within 24 hours. This contract is not set aside for any specific designation. MGH, a...
- This is a federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to the Trustees of Dartmouth College, a private university, to conduct research on monitoring bone loss and kidney stone risk in microgravity environments. The $149,999.95 grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, was awarded on September 1, 2019, with a completion date of August 31, 2021. Dartmouth College, as a prime contractor, has a history of providing research...
This federal contract award to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a major academic medical center in Boston, is for a research grant to study the physiological adaptations of the musculoskeletal system to fractional gravity environments, such as the Moon or Mars, after a period of microgravity. The award, valued at $749,177, is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2022. The research aims to determine the musculoskeletal responses in both males and females during the transition from microgravity to partial gravity, as well as investigate the potential benefits of using artificial gravity as an intermediate step. This grant does not have a set-aside designation, indicating it was competitively awarded in the open market.
