Current and On-going Solicitations
The Translational Research Institute for Space Health offers multiple funding mechanisms with variable solicitation methods, funding amounts, durations and review cycles. TRISH's research priorities include commercial space health research (EXPAND), medical system architecture (HERMES), and tissues-chips (SENTINEL). View our current solicitations below.
Brain State Assessment Tool (B-SAT)
The NASA Artemis program will take future astronauts further from Earth requiring greater autonomy from the ground. Maintaining performance during this time is crucial for mission success. On future long duration missions, astronauts will need autonomy-enabling tools so they may make decisions about their own readiness to perform mission-critical tasks during long communication delays.
TRISH aims to select a project that can support the well-being and performance of users doing critical tasks in challenging environments. The ideal tool will provide on-the-fly information during ongoing mission activities, such as spacewalks. This non-disruptive, minimally obtrusive device will assess multiple aspects of 鈥渞eadiness鈥 state, such as attention, fatigue, workload, stress, and drowsiness. With a tool like this, astronauts could directly help track and manage their own behavioral health resources, enhance performance and mitigate potential health and safety risks such as burnout.

International Collaborations
As a federally funded institute, TRISH supports research projects led by investigators currently at U.S.-based institutions. However, to foster an environment for collaboration, TRISH encourages international investigators and organizations to connect by adding themselves to our . There, you can find potential collaborators as well as add your name, institution and contact information for other potential collaborations with the wider space biomedical community.
