## What the grant funds

New NASA Research Announcement NNJ21ZSA001N-OMNIBUS NASA Human Research Program Omnibus Opportunity NASA’s Human Research Program (HRP) has released solicited research response area NRA NNJ23ZSA001N-OMNIBUS “NASA Human Research Program Omnibus Opportunity” that solicits applied research in support of HRP goals and objectives. This response area is Appendix A of the Human Exploration Research Opportunities (HERO) NRA (NNJ23ZSA001N). NASA is soliciting investigations lasting no more than one year that provide innovative approaches to any of the risks and gaps contained in the Integrated Research Plan (https://humanresearchroadmap.nasa.gov) of the Human Research Program.

Early career investigators must additionally be no more than ten years from their terminal research degree or clinical training. Proposals will be reviewed using a dual-anonymous peer review (DAPR) process in which the identity of reviewers will not be shared with proposers and the identity of proposers will not be shared with reviewers until after the technical merit has been evaluated for all anonymized proposals. See the solicitation for details on preparing proposals. Appendix A of the HERO NRA and associated documentation can be found at: https://tinyurl.com/HERO23-OMNIBUS.
