The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center awarded Case Western Reserve University $175,078 on November 1, 2025, under the Science program (CFDA 43.001) to execute a balanced science program based on discipline-specific guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine and in alignment with administration priorities and congressional direction.

The award supports Case Western Reserve University's Office of Research Administration, operating in affiliation with University Hospitals of Cleveland, as a key partner and enabler in NASA's science mission. Work is performed in Cleveland, Ohio through October 31, 2028. The Science Mission Directorate competitively solicits research across six research categories—Astrophysics, Biological and Physical Sciences, Earth Science, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, and Multi- or Cross-Division activities—plus lunar discovery and exploration programs, with evaluation criteria addressing intrinsic merit, relevance to NASA strategic objectives, and cost reasonableness.
