- This federal contract award, valued at $200,000.00, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Ohio State University under a Cooperative Agreement. The objective is to conduct research on the mechanisms driving skeletal muscle atrophy in astronauts during extended spaceflight. The team, composed of undergraduate students from The Ohio State University and Emory University, will design, build, and test hardware to fly miniaturized tissue-engineered skeletal...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $499,953.96 grant to Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia, doing business as the University of Virginia, to research the reduction of space structure mass through the design and fabrication of cellular lattice structures. The research will develop analytical and computational models relating lattice topology, material properties, and performance characteristics such as stiffness, strength, fracture resistance,...
- This federal contract award, valued at $94,694.68, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to The Ohio State University to conduct ground-based studies on tissue-engineered skeletal muscle models. The objective is to better understand the mechanisms driving muscle atrophy during spaceflight, with the goal of developing countermeasures. This award supports the development of miniaturized, functional muscle constructs that can be used to simulate microgravity...
- This is a $134,752.32 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia (UVA), conducting research to quantify, understand, and predict changes in Earth's ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles, including the global carbon cycle. The grant is part of NASA's Carbon Cycling and Ecosystems Focus Area and has an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2023. UVA, as a major research university, has extensive experience...
- This federal contract award, valued at $268,387.00, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia, an educational institution registered as a non-profit and state-controlled institution of higher learning. The contract, identified as 80NSSC21K1071, is for research services to study "TIME-EVOLVING ATMOSPHERIC CO2 FIELDS" and "DECIPHERING THE DESIRED SURFACE CARBON FLUX SIGNAL FROM SPACED-BASED...
- This is a $1,890,361 firm-fixed-price definitive contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia (UVA), a public research university. The contract is for the "Recovery-Verification and Validation of Flight Critical Sytems for NextGen AA Integrated Model Checking and Simulation of NextGen Authority and Autonomy." This work supports NASA's Next Generation Air Transportation System...
- This federal contract award with ID 80NSSC20K0529 was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia (UVA) for a project titled "Modeling Disk Ionization During Planet Formation". The $418,746.10 grant is a research contract that will run until April 14, 2024. UVA, a public research university, has extensive experience managing complex federally-funded projects across various scientific domains. The university...
This federal contract award, valued at $650,162.73, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Rector & Visitors of the University of Virginia (UVA), a public research university. The contract aims to develop a multiscale computational model that can predict changes in muscle structure and function in response to both microgravity and in-flight exercise during long-term spaceflight. This model will integrate computational simulations at various spatial scales, including whole-body dynamics, muscle tissue finite-element analysis, and muscle cell-level agent-based modeling. The goal is to facilitate the design of effective exercise programs to combat muscle atrophy and enhance muscle strength during and after spaceflight missions. The contract is not set aside and does not appear to be associated with a larger contract vehicle.
