About this award
The Center for Applied Space Technology, Incorporated was awarded a $641,604.82 research grant by a civilian federal agency to conduct large-scope bioprinting in microgravity. The award, issued on June 1, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2024, represents a non-set-aside contract supporting advanced biotechnology research. The work will be performed in Orange Park, Florida, and focuses on developing or advancing bioprinting capabilities for use in the microgravity environment of space.
This research initiative aligns with civilian space agency priorities to expand scientific and technological capabilities in orbital environments. Bioprinting in microgravity presents unique opportunities for tissue engineering and pharmaceutical development, as the absence of gravitational forces enables the creation of three-dimensional structures that may be difficult or impossible to produce on Earth. The grant structure and research focus indicate the funding agency's commitment to leveraging space-based platforms for innovative biotechnology applications that could yield commercial and medical benefits.
