ROSBio Appendix D: Solicitation of Proposals for Flight and Ground Space Biology Research
NNH18ZTT001N-FG2
Grants.gov https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=322056
Step 1 proposals due Dec. 2. 2019
The solicited research will fall into the following three research topics:
- 1) Microbiology studies that will produce new understanding of how microbiological organisms and/or communities acclimate to, evolve, and/or behave in the spaceflight environment.
- 2) Plant Biology studies in support of Human Space Exploration making use of the ISS capabilities to study environmental effects on plant growth and interactions with microbes and fungi.
- 3) Animal Biology (vertebrate and invertebrate) experiments that lead to the characterization of organ systems, behavioral adaptations, and the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms of phenotypic changes within tissues and between physiological systems.
