Execute a balanced science program based on discipline-specific guidance from the national academies of sciences engineering and medicine administration priorities and direction from congress

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded $297,895 to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as University of California, Berkeley, under the NASA Science program (Assistance Listing 43.001) on October 1, 2025, for a project grant extending through September 30, 2029.

The award supports execution of a balanced science program informed by discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine and aligned with administration priorities and congressional direction. The source does not specify the detailed research scope, objectives, or deliverables beyond this characterization.

UC Berkeley, a non-profit 1862 land-grant research institution, receives the award as the direct recipient. The institution operates as a net prime in federal research across 243 distinct customer agencies, holding approximately 8,496 awards as prime principal or recipient. NASA Shared Services Center accounts for 994 awards to UC Berkeley valued at $274.3 million combined potential. The university's federal research portfolio encompasses quantum computing and advanced electronics, materials science and catalysis, space science and heliophysics, biomedical and health sciences research, climate and environmental engineering, and AI/machine learning methodologies. UC Berkeley delivers funded work directly through its faculty, researchers, and student researchers rather than through traditional subcontracting.

Work is performed in Berkeley, California.
