- This is a $1,876,306.00 grant awarded by the NASA Shared Services Center to the Old Dominion University Research Foundation (Odurf) for a study on the impact of hadron particles on brain function and neurocognition in astronauts during deep space missions. The study aims to determine the degree to which impairment of executive function performance following exposure to mission-relevant hadron doses is associated with changes in neurotransmitter release and sleep perturbations. The grant supports...
- 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 an international research proposal consisting of two synergistic projects to be carried out by the German Aerospace Center (DLR)/European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA. The contract, awarded as a $2,472,133.00 grant to the University of Pennsylvania, aims to study the effects of prolonged space missions on astronaut cognitive performance, brain structure and function, and risk of psychiatric disorders. The research will utilize state-of-the-art neuroimaging techniques to determine 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 $174,992.99 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Research Institute to conduct research on the effects of galactic cosmic radiation (GCR) on cognitive function in mice and evaluate the potential mitigating effects of the anti-inflammatory compound CDDO-EA. The research aims to better understand the acute and long-term central nervous system risks for astronauts exposed to GCR, which is an unavoidable...
- 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...
- This is a $2,476,960 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Brigham & Women's Hospital Inc., a research hospital affiliated with Harvard Medical School. The grant will fund a 4-year research study to determine the short- and long-term effects of various types of space radiation, including iron, proton, oxygen-16, and mixed beams, on cognition, motor abilities, fatigue, anxiety, and cardiovascular and brain health in Alzheimer's disease mouse models....
- 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...
- 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...
- 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....
