This is a $2,773,956 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Loma Linda University (LLU), a private, non-profit educational institution in California. The grant is for the "Definition Phase Only" of research to study the effects of space radiation on the central nervous system. LLU will expose adult mice to various charged particle mixtures found in space, including protons, helium, oxygen, and silicon, at different dose rates over long time...
This is a $1,999,998.00 grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Trustees of Indiana University, a public research university, for a project titled "Foundational In Vivo Experiments on Osteocyte Biology in Space". The purpose of the grant is to study the effects of long-term spaceflight on bone health, with a focus on understanding the biological changes in osteocytes (bone cells) and bone matrix properties that...
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 $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 federal contract award to Loma Linda University (LLU) in the amount of $1,058,978.50 is a grant for research focused on the impacts of spaceflight-relevant stressors on astronaut health. LLU, a private non-profit university and academic health sciences center, will conduct studies using centrifugation to simulate hyper-gravity conditions and analyze changes in the gut microbiome, sympathetic nervous system function, and inflammatory activity. The research aims to determine how these...
This is a grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC (LLNS) for the International Space Station Microbial Observatory of Pathogenic Virus, Bacteria, and Fungi (ISS-MOP) project. The $194,617.59 grant will fund research to measure the presence of viral, bacterial, and fungal pathogens in the International Space Station (ISS) habitat and correlate their presence with crew health. The project aims to catalog viruses and...
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...
This is a $150,000.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Salk Institute for Biological Studies, a non-profit research organization located in La Jolla, California. The grant will fund research to develop automated deep learning algorithms for quantifying rodent behavior and health phenotypes during spaceflight missions. This research supports NASA's efforts to monitor the effects of spaceflight on animal physiology and is not associated with any...
This federal award is a grant for $994,678 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), doing business as the Office of Research Administration. The grant supports research on the effects of real microgravity on human neural stem cells and oligodendrocytes, aimed at understanding the causes of increased intracranial pressure and visual impairment observed in astronauts after long-duration space missions. The research will...
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...
