- The University of Pennsylvania received a $2.47 million research grant from NASA, awarded June 1, 2019, with a completion date of September 30, 2033. This international collaborative effort, conducted jointly with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the European Space Agency (ESA), addresses critical Human Research Program (HRP) risks related to adverse cognitive and behavioral conditions during extended space missions. The project focuses on the Integrated One-Year Mission Project (I1YMP)...
- The University of Pennsylvania was awarded a $2.27 million research grant by a civilian federal agency to conduct long-term research on brain structural and functional consequences of spaceflight. The grant, awarded on March 15, 2021, will extend through September 30, 2033, and will be performed at the university's Philadelphia campus. This research aligns with federal interests in understanding the physiological impacts of extended space missions on human neurological systems, with potential...
- 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 $4,088,467.35 award to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, doing business as the Clinical Practices of the University of Pennsylvania, is a grant for research focused on optimizing human performance, adaptability, and resiliency for long-duration space exploration missions. The research leverages the NIMH Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework to identify biological and behavioral factors that predict astronaut performance and well-being in simulated spaceflight conditions....
- 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...
- 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...
- The University of Pennsylvania received a $946,000 research grant from a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center for the Mars Adaptive Training Integrative Knowledge System (MATRIKS) program. This research initiative, awarded on December 17, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025, focuses on improving operational performance and understanding the neural basis for spaceflight during future long-duration space expeditions. The work will be conducted at the...
- 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 (NASA) awarded a $294,913.62 grant to the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) to conduct research on semantic mapping of dynamic, intra-vehicular environments and safe autonomous navigation within those environments. The research aims to enable robots to perceive their surroundings as a collection of high-level objects, rather than just points or an occupancy grid. The work will focus on developing highly optimized techniques...
- The University of Florida (UF) was awarded a $513,967.35 grant (Grant Award ID: 80NSSC17K0021) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on the neurological impacts of a 30-day head-down tilt bed rest study with a 0.5% CO2 environment. This research aims to quantify the neurocognitive changes and associated neural structural and functional alterations that occur in a spaceflight analog environment. The study will utilize cutting-edge neuroimaging...
