- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Johnson Space Center isreleasing a NASA Research Announcement (NRA), Cooperative Agreement Notice forGROUND-BASED STUDIES IN SPACE RADIOBIOLOGY. Research to be supported will reduce theuncertainties in risk predictions for cancer/ radiation risks; provide the necessarydata/knowledge to develop risk projection models for central nervous system (CNS) andother degenerative tissue risks; and advance the understanding of the mechanisms ofbiological damage that underlies radiation health risks. On or about March 17, 2009 this NRA will be available electronically by opening the NASAResearch Opportunities homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ and then linking throughthe menu listings "Solicitations" to "Open Solicitations." This National Aeronautics andSpace Administration (NASA) Research Announcement (NRA) solicits ground-based proposalsfor the Space Radiation Program Element (SRPE) components of the Human Research Program(HRP).Proposals are solicited by the SRPE in the area of Space Radiation Biology utilizingbeams of high energy heavy ions simulating space radiation at the NASA Space RadiationLaboratory (NSRL), at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) in Upton, New York.Step-1 proposals are due on April 23, 2009, and invited Step-2 proposals are due on June25, 2009. Proposals are required to be submitted electronically and must be submitted byan authorized official of the proposing organization.
