The NASA-funded Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH) is now accepting proposals by means of the 2025 TRISH Appendix A – Enhancing eXploration Platforms and ANalog Definition (EXPAND) Exploratory Studies call to advance analysis in human well being and efficiency earlier than, throughout and after industrial spaceflights to additional human area exploration.
What are we looking for?
This Appendix seeks scientific research for potential implementation in industrial spaceflight.
This solicitation is a part of TRISH’s Enhancing eXploration Platform and ANalog Definition (EXPAND) Program. Working with industrial spaceflight suppliers and their passengers, the EXPAND Program collects pre-, in-, and post-flight well being and efficiency information from a number of industrial spaceflight missions. The info collected as a part of of those missions is housed within the EXPAND centralized analysis database and biorepository.
Proposals for this solicitation ought to concentrate on two matters:
· Exploratory Science: This subject seeks new hypothesis-driven scientific research to allow protected and profitable human area journey. Subtopics are listed within the Appendix.
· Know-how Demonstrations: This subject seeks profitable, mature floor applied sciences or interventions that will profit from demonstration in spaceflight. Subtopics are listed within the Appendix.
Funded initiatives will undergo two consecutive phases. The primary part, the “Flight Definition Part,” will include preparation for a possible flight. The second part, the “Flight Implementation Part,” will present help earlier than, throughout, and after a particular flight has been recognized. Please seek advice from the solicitation for full particulars on spaceflights.
Analysis Length: Two years.
Award: Venture award totals can attain a most of $200k for know-how demonstrations and $300k for exploratory science research. Please seek advice from the solicitation for particular award quantity particulars.
