NASA ROSES-24 Amendment 76: E.9 Space Biology: Research Studies Draft Text Released
When it is solicited, the research emphases of E.9 Space Biology: Research Studies will fall under two broad categories: Precision Health and Space Crops.
For Precision Health-focused studies, investigators may propose to use any non-primate animal model system, and any appropriate cell/tissue culture/ microphysiological system/ organoid or microbial models, that are supported by the chosen platform. For Space Crop-focused studies, applicants may propose to use any plant model system, and when appropriate, any microbial or plant and microbial model systems that are supported by the chosen platform.
This opportunity will include five different Project Types: Research Investigations, Early Career Research Investigations, New NASA Investigators, GeneLab Analytical Investigations, and Tissue Sharing Investigations.
Specific requirements for each of these Project Types are described in detail in Section 2.2 of this program element. The Project Types have different platform requirements (i.e., flight or ground) described in Section 2.3 of the program element text.
ROSES-2024 Amendment 76 releases DRAFT text of E.9 Space Biology: Research Studies, to be included in ROSES-2024. Plant Studies and Animal Studies will not be solicited separately; what was to have been solicited in those opportunities has been incorporated into this new DRAFT E.9 Space Biology: Research Studies.
On or about December 3, 2024, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2024” (NNH24ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024 and will appear on SARA’s ROSES blog at: https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/solicitations/roses-2024/
Questions concerning DRAFT text of E.9 Space Biology: Research Studies may be directed to Lynn Harrison (for Precision Health) and Elison Blancaflor (for Space Crops) at [email protected].
