Status

Timing

Active. A ground-based venous-thromboembolism solicitation is due August 18, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time; the Catalyst Grants Program also publishes current priority topics outside regular cycles.

Eligibility

The VTE call is open to U.S.-based institutions, commercial entities, and other research organizations. TRISH states that federally funded projects are led by investigators at U.S.-based institutions; the Catalyst solicitation and each call control detailed eligibility.

Access notes

The VTE call may award up to $500,000, with selections anticipated in December 2026 and a February 2027 start. TRISH warns that awards remain subject to NASA funding availability and may be delayed, reduced, or canceled.

Relationship

indexed only; no formal relationship

Potential fit and evidence boundary

Autonomous medicine and commercial-space health

Evidence boundary: Official Baylor/TRISH funding page reviewed. It states current programs, deadline, broad eligibility, award ceiling, and funding contingency. No scientific fit, investigator eligibility, ethics approval, or award is implied.

Task-specific matches

monitor · editorial task match

Radiation and life-course health

The current space-health funding route is relevant only to a qualified, bounded health question and does not validate multigenerational claims.

Required artifact: A qualified research team, exact solicitation fit, and high-consequence review plan.

Action status: proposed; not undertaken

Proposed founder action—not undertaken

Only consider a call when qualified medical investigators, institutional oversight, a precise Human Research Roadmap gap, and a validated study plan exist; seek separate authorization before any proposal.

Conflicts and change triggers

Conflicts: Human health and medical-system work is high consequence; clinical validity, research ethics, privacy, conflicts of interest, and funding dependence require independent specialist review.

What would change this record? New Catalyst topics, amended VTE instructions, confirmed qualified investigators and institutional approvals, or a budget change would alter fit.
