- This is a $1,141,678.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as the Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania, to investigate the efficacy of physical exercise using a cycle ergometer combined with an interactive virtual environment, known as "hybrid training," as a countermeasure for augmenting sensory stimulation during long-duration space missions. The grant will fund...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded a $1,013,964 grant to The Space Research Company LLC, a minority-owned, woman-owned small business, for research to develop a conceptual framework and validation path for measuring task performance quality between crewmembers and robotic systems in space exploration. The work seeks to address the lack of comprehensive standards for evaluating task design and dynamic interaction between humans and autonomous...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $389,820.47 grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to evaluate a self-generated lower body negative pressure (LBNP) device as a countermeasure against spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS). The self-generated LBNP device was previously developed and published by the UCSD team and is currently in use on the Chinese space station Tiangong One. This research aims to quantify the device's efficacy in...
- This $758,234 federal grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to develop a coupled finite element and musculoskeletal modeling framework for simulating the dynamics of human exosuit systems. The research aims to enable model-based engineering approaches for evaluating the operational performance of exosuits, including sensitivity to parameters like material stiffness and muscle activation. The grant does not...
- This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is for a $96,726.00 research grant to IMSG Laboratories Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, to develop a novel "Linear Artificial Gravity (AG)" technology. The goal is to design and test a system that can counteract the physiological deconditioning effects, such as bone loss and muscle atrophy, experienced by astronauts during long-duration space exploration missions, including...
- This is a $392,133.11 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Florida (UF) to investigate whether 30 minutes of artificial gravity per day, delivered either continuously or in six, five-minute intermittent blocks, can mitigate changes that occur in a spaceflight analog environment. The grant, which is not set aside, will fund a 60-day head-down tilt bed rest study to assess the effectiveness of the artificial gravity countermeasure on...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $579,723 grant to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) on April 10, 2018 to conduct research on the effects of artificial gravity on neuroplasticity and behavioral health during long-duration spaceflight. The overarching goal is to quantify the impact of different intermittent artificial gravity protocols on cortical neuroplasticity, neural control of the cardiovascular system, and spatial cognition during 60-day...
- This is a $99,998.00 grant awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), a prominent public research university and Hispanic-Serving Institution. The grant is for a feasibility study on using neural networks to predict adaptability and multiday performance savings in dual motor-cognitive tasks after exposure to space flight stressors. The award is not set aside for any specific business type. UNLV, as part of the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE),...
- NASA's Shared Services Center awarded a $524,787.50 research grant to The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Inc. (Draper) on July 1, 2025, to conduct a Phase II study under the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program. This grant extends research initiated through a prior Phase I award, with work to be performed at Draper's headquarters in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and completion targeted for June 30, 2027. The Phase II study will advance the exploration and development of revolutionary...
- The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $305,000.00 grant to Brandeis University to conduct research on "Vibrotactile Feedback as a Countermeasure for Spatial Disorientation During a Stabilization Task in a Spaceflight Analog Condition." This fundamental research grant, which runs through June 7, 2024, will investigate the use of vibrotactile feedback as a potential solution to address spatial disorientation experienced by astronauts during...
