- 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 University of Pennsylvania was awarded a $2.47 million grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to conduct a seven-year international research initiative in collaboration with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and European Space Agency (ESA). The project addresses critical Human Research Program risks related to adverse cognitive and behavioral conditions during extended space missions, with a specific focus on NASA's Integrated One-Year Mission Project aboard the...
- 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 is a grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Houston System, a state-funded institution of higher education located in Houston, Texas. The grant, valued at $970,015.66, is for a research project titled "Characterization of Psychological Risk, Overlap with Physical Health, and Associated Performance in Isolated, Confined, Extreme (ICE) Environments." The project aims to address gaps in understanding the psychological and...
- 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 $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....
