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...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $2,316,596.33 cooperative agreement to the University of Pennsylvania to develop a standardized suite of behavioral health measurement tools for use in spaceflight research and ground-based analogs. The goal is to rapidly and reliably assess the risk of adverse behavioral conditions and psychiatric outcomes for exploration-class missions to Mars and other long-duration, isolated environments. The tools will be integrated on an...
This $750,000.00 grant contract was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania. The grant supports research on the effects of weightlessness and radiation exposure on telomere length in skeletal muscle atrophy, which has relevance to the health of astronauts during space exploration missions. The research aims to define the underlying molecular...
This is a $101,612.97 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Research Foundation for the State University of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University. The objective of the research is to identify personality, behavioral, and neurophysiological predictors of resilience among a population of high-achieving adults in highly demanding training programs, such as medical and research lab trainees. The grant supports a 5-month longitudinal study to...
