This federal contract award to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a major academic medical center in Boston, is for a research grant to study the physiological adaptations of the musculoskeletal system to fractional gravity environments, such as the Moon or Mars, after a period of microgravity. The award, valued at $749,177, is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and has an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2022. The research aims to...
This is a $686,978 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. The grant is for a research project to determine the effects of varying partial gravity levels on bone, muscle, and soft tissues of the hip and knee joints in adult mice flown aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The research aims to assess whether partial gravity, either induced...
This federal contract award, with an ID of 80NSSC20K1147, was granted by the Shared Services Center (a civilian agency) to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc), a non-profit academic medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. The $378,294.83 grant is for research to better understand the musculoskeletal response to longer duration spaceflight, as previous rodent studies have been limited to 2-week missions. The award is not designated as a set-aside contract. Bidmc, as a teaching...
