NIH is providing a grant to develop in vitro microphysiological systems for modeling human diseases in extreme space environments. These models will be used at the International Space Station-U.S. National Laboratory (ISS-NL) to assess biomarkers, bioavailability, efficacy, and toxicity of therapeutic agents before clinical trials. Closing date: Dec 15, 2016.

| Description: | The purpose of this FOA is to promote the development of in vitro microphysiological systems in modeling human diseases and conditions that mimic the pathology in major organs and tissues in the human body, when exposed to the extreme environments of space, and the use of these models at the International Space Station-U.S. National Laboratory (ISS-NL) to facilitate the assessment of biomarkers, bioavailability, efficacy, and toxicity of therapeutic agents prior to entry into clinical trials. |
