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.
The Catalyst Grants Program

TRISH's Catalyst Grant Program offers a streamlined method for carrying out proof-of-concept projects, directed technology developments that address critical needs in space health, maturation of promising concepts with strong preliminary findings, and innovative projects that present opportunities outside of regularly scheduled solicitation cycles.
Any project that addresses the NASA Human Research Roadmap (HRR) and the TRISH initiatives may be proposed. However, TRISH has identified three topic areas of high interest, each encompassing several sub-topics.
Proposals addressing these subjects will receive higher priority:
- Advancing technology to support remote crew health and performance monitoring
- Advancing remote healthcare knowledge base
- Advancing remote research capabilities
Funds are fully obligated. TRISH will continue to accept and screen any Step-1 proposals. We may invite Step-2 proposals but these proposals are at risk as a result of budget availability.
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 Researchers Open to Collaboration document. 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.
