- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center awarded a $200,000.00 grant to Texas A&M University System Health Science Center (Texas A&M Univ Hlth SCI CTR) to examine the effects of space-relevant radiation on the immune system, vascular architecture, and metabolome (bacterial products) of the gastrointestinal tract. This grant-funded research project has a completion date of July 31, 2022. Texas A&M Univ Hlth SCI CTR is an institution of higher...
- This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Texas A&M Research Foundation, a non-profit organization affiliated with Texas A&M University. The $439,126.93 grant is for research on "Adaptations of Visceral and Cerebral Resistance Arteries to Simulated Microgravity", with a period of performance from December 1, 2001 to June 30, 2003. The award is not a set-aside contract. The Texas A&M Research Foundation has extensive...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $115,332.01 research grant to Temple University-Of The Commonwealth System Of Higher Education, doing business as Temple University, to study the potential cardiovascular effects of ionizing space radiation exposure on astronauts during long-duration space missions to the Moon and Mars. The grant aims to determine qualitative differences and quantify radiobiological effective thresholds for biological damage induced by various...
- This federal contract award, valued at $99,923.61, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to investigate the impact of a diet high in omega-3 fatty acids on mitigating radiation-induced bone loss. The research aims to determine if this dietary intervention can reduce the generation of inflammatory cytokines in bone tissue, which have been linked to accelerated bone resorption and suppression of bone formation in astronauts exposed to...
- This federal contract award to Prairie View A&M University, a historically Black land-grant university in Texas, supports a research study on the combined effects of microgravity and space radiation on human cells. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is providing $722,711.44 in grant funding for this project, which aims to establish a baseline for understanding the molecular and cellular responses to simultaneous exposure to these space environmental stressors. The...
- This is a $899,994.00 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Texas A&M University to conduct research on the effects of microgravity on skeletal muscle. The research aims to understand how skeletal muscle adapts to the mechanical unloading experienced in microgravity environments, which can lead to muscle atrophy, weakness, and increased risk of injury upon return to a gravitational environment. This research is critical to support the health and...
- Duke University Office of Research Administration was awarded a $150,000 grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to research the effects of space radiation on the cardiovascular system. The grant is part of an ongoing NASA-funded study titled "Proteomic Signatures of Space Radiation Induced Cardiovascular Degeneration." The research aims to explore the role of a family of proteins called small proline-rich repeat proteins (SPRRs) in mitigating the...
- Duke University's Office of Research Administration has been awarded an $800,000 research grant by the NASA Shared Services Center, with a completion date of November 30, 2026. This non-set-aside grant supports a multi-disciplinary investigation into the cardiovascular effects of environmental stressors encountered during space exploration, specifically examining the individual and combined impacts of galactic cosmic radiation and weightlessness on cardiac biology. The research leverages two...
- This is a $2,478,052.00 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UT Southwestern) in Dallas, Texas. The grant is part of NASA's "MOUSE MODELS OF CANCER RISK AND PREVENTION FROM SPACE RADIATION" program and supports research on the molecular effects of low-dose space radiation exposure. The objective is to use mouse models to understand how different types and doses of radiation impact the...
