This is a $312,990.61 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Loma Linda University (LLU), a private, non-profit educational institution, to research the effects of low-dose radiation on neurovascular remodeling and blood-retina barrier function in mice, rats, and rabbits. The grant has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025. LLU has extensive experience supporting federal agencies through contracts and grants, particularly in healthcare...
This is a $215,685.52 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Loma Linda University (LLU), a private non-profit university. The grant is for research to evaluate the effects of simulated microgravity and low-dose radiation, which are stressors unique to the spaceflight environment, on the central nervous system, eyes, and skin in a ground-based model. The research aims to further understand the mechanisms behind the deleterious...
This is a federal research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Loma Linda University (LLU), a private non-profit educational institution located in Loma Linda, California. The grant, with a ceiling value of $2,250,151.00, is focused on studying the impact of the spaceflight environment on the host immune response, particularly the effects on B cells and antibody production. The study will utilize a mouse model to establish a link between exposure to the...
This federal contract award to Loma Linda University (LLU), a private non-profit educational institution, is for a grant valued at $399,818 to support research on the cellular mechanisms of spaceflight-induced effects. The award was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of April 30, 2024. The contract is not set aside for any particular business type, indicating LLU's competitive standing in this specialized area of biomedical...
This is a $1,328,066.91 grant awarded by the NASA Shared Services Center to Loma Linda University, a private non-profit educational institution, to conduct an experiment protocol involving mice on the International Space Station (ISS). The experiment will study the effects of the antioxidant compound Mn(III) tetrakis (N-ethylpyridinium-2-yl) porphyrin (MnTE-2-Py) on oxidative stress, retinal endothelial cells, and extracellular matrix in microgravity. The mice will be housed on the ISS for up to...
This $9,007,528.58 federal grant award by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) is focused on resolving the mechanisms leading to radiation-induced cognitive dysfunction in humans exposed to the space radiation environment. The research aims to improve risk estimates for early and late central nervous system (CNS) effects caused by this exposure. The grant involves a comprehensive series of mechanistic studies analyzing the...
This is a three-year grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), a non-profit organization based in Bethesda, Maryland. The grant is for an in-depth study to more fully understand the risk of central nervous system (CNS) effects following radiation exposures in space and to provide guidance for risk management and radiation protection. The grant is a follow-on to a previous Phase 1 effort...
This federal contract award, valued at $20,000.00, was issued by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Loma Linda University Medical Center (LLUMC), a non-profit hospital and academic medical center located in Loma Linda, California. The contract is for the provision of proton accelerator beam time, which LLUMC has expertise in providing to NASA and other federal agencies for radiation testing of electronic hardware. LLUMC has a track...
This $540,200 cost-plus-fixed-fee grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center to New York Medical College, a subsidiary of Touro University, to study the long-term consequences of cosmic radiation exposure. Over the three-year period of performance ending January 2023, the contractor will evaluate the impact of heavy ion radiation like iron-56 and protons on cardiovascular function and identify pathways that lead to radiation-induced...
This is a $1,876,306.00 grant award from NASA to Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) to conduct a research study on the impact of hadron radiation exposure on brain function and neurocognition for astronauts on deep space missions. The study aims to determine the severity of impairments in executive function performance, changes in neurotransmitter release, and effects on sleep and recovery after exposure to high energy protons, oxygen, and silicon particles. The research will address key...
