- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $115,332.01 research grant to Temple University-Of The Commonwealth System Of Higher Education, doing business as Temple University, to study the potential cardiovascular effects of ionizing space radiation exposure on astronauts during long-duration space missions to the Moon and Mars. The grant aims to determine qualitative differences and quantify radiobiological effective thresholds for biological damage induced by various...
- Duke University was awarded a $148,337.04 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research related to medical care and procedures for astronauts. The grant, awarded on July 23, 2020, will support the development of techniques for drawing blood samples and administering intravenous medications in space, which can be complex and time-consuming for astronauts. The grant is scheduled to be completed by February 2, 2022. This award is not associated with a...
- Duke University was awarded a $201,283.63 grant by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to conduct research on how the physical space environment may influence the activation of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) in the human genome. The grant, which was awarded on October 1, 2019 and is scheduled to be completed by December 31, 2022, will fund two research aims: 1) utilizing a bioreactor to grow cells in a simulated microgravity environment and evaluate them for evidence of...
- This $179,871.47 federal grant award to Texas A&M University was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to study the effects of space radiation and microgravity on the cardiovascular system. The research aims to understand how space flight imposes unique stressors on astronauts, particularly the damage and fibrosis that can occur in the heart and vasculature due to radiation exposure. The grant will fund a series of mouse studies using X-ray, heavy ion, and...
- This is a $2,399,358.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia to conduct research on the health effects of exposure to galactic cosmic radiation (GCR). The research aims to better understand the mechanisms by which GCR, particularly its high charge and energy (HZE) particle components, can lead to chronic DNA damage and impairment of DNA repair machinery, which may contribute to increased cancer risk for astronauts on...
- NASA awarded a $3.61 million grant to Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) on April 10, 2019, for research addressing cardiovascular disease risks and degenerative tissue effects from radiation exposure, with performance extending through December 31, 2026. The research directly supports gaps identified in NASA's Human Research Program (HRP) Integrated Research Plan, specifically targeting the development of tissue-specific experimental models for cardiovascular and other degenerative...
