About this award
This federal contract award, valued at $426,783.00, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency within the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), a private research university located in Troy, New York. The award is a grant for research focused on understanding how spaceflight factors, including microgravity and space radiation, affect somatic stem cell-based tissue regeneration. This research is critical for supporting human spaceflight and exploration. The award does not utilize a set-aside designation, indicating RPI's competitiveness in securing federal research contracts. In addition to this grant, RPI holds an Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) valued at up to $1 million, which supports the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and embedded sensor technologies for smart metal structures. RPI's extensive federal contract and grant portfolio reflects its expertise in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, and its ability to contribute to a wide range of government research and development priorities.
