CASIS NSF NIH WEBINAR DEC 14 TH 2017
THE ISS U.S. NATIONAL LAB The ISS U.S. National Lab provides opportunity for research and discovery targeted to a definitive impact on Earth The opportunities are wide-ranging:
ISS National Lab Research & Development Partnerships 50% of ISS research capacity (~500 hours crew time) Access to a national network of engineers, space experts, and scientists Access to NASA facilities, ground laboratories, training and launch facilities World-class on-orbit research facilities Transportation to/from ISS
CASIS FACILITATES ACCESS TO THE ISS NATIONAL LAB CASIS coordinates with NASA and launch vehicle providers for transportation to and from the ISS CASIS matches potential users with Implementation Partners - experienced payload developers and subject matter experts with demonstrated experience in spaceflight research and development, who can provide a wide range of products and services Implementation partner services include: Technical guidance to translate ground-based science goals to the space environment Engineering integration Hardware/software develop and testing Flight qualification services Mission management Launch and landing site support Operations planning and real-time crew operations support Access to a unique suite of flight certified hardware http://www.spacestationresearch.com/facilities-hardware/implementation-partners/ http://www.iss-casis.org/
TWO SEPARATE FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES NSF/CASIS Collaboration on Tissue Engineering on the International Space Station to Benefit Life on Earth NSF 18-514 Michele Grimm, PhD mgrimm@nsf.gov Proposal Due Feb 12 th 2018 @ 5pm Feasibility Review Due Jan 5 th 2018 NIH-CASIS Coordinated Microphysiological Systems Program for Translational Research in Space RFA-TR-18-001 NCATS: Dan Tagle, PhD danilo.tagle@nih.gov NIBIB: Seila Selimovic, PhD seila.selimovic@nih.gov Proposal Due Jan 16 th 2018 @ 5pm
NSF 18-514 NSF will lead the scientific merit review Demonstrate need for ISS National Lab Benefit to life on Earth 3 Year Funding Opportunity 1 Flight Opportunity to conduct ISS National Lab Experiments NSF will fund the work of the PI Implementation Partner Costs should not be in NSF proposal budget
NSF 18-514 CASIS will lead feasibility review Talk with Implementation Partners to understand what is feasible Complete Feasibility Review Form (Jan 5 th ) to get feedback https://www.iss-casis.org/research-on-theiss/solicitations/tissue-engineering-2017/ CASIS, via their cooperative agreement with NASA, will provide funding to Implementation Partners to utilize existing hardware and capabilities but not necessarily to make significant modifications or develop new capabilities.
RFA-TR-18-001 NIH will lead the scientific merit review Demonstrate need for ISS National Lab Benefit to life on Earth 4 Year Funding Opportunity (UG3/UH3) 2 Flight Opportunity to conduct ISS National Lab Experiments NIH will fund the work of the PI and the IPs Implementation Partner Costs should be in NIH proposal budget
RFA-TR-18-001 CASIS will lead feasibility review Talk with Implementation Partners to understand what is feasible Teams must include Implementation Partner Develop Milestone Schedules Can include changes to existing hardware and capabilities. CASIS, via their cooperative agreement with NASA, may provide funding to Implementation Partners.
