5 A. Introduction and Overview
I. Introduction to TRISH
TRISH’s mission is to provide funding for early as well as late stage cutting-edge research that can be translated into validated human health and performance solutions for deep space exploration missions. The institute recognizes the importance of inspiring, educating, and advancing space health research of skilled researchers and especially the next generation of space life scientists.
Founded on October 1, 2016, TRISH works in partnership with NASA’s Human Research Program (HRP) through Cooperative Agreement NNX16AO69A.
TRISH, led by Baylor College of Medicine’s Center for Space Medicine, is a consortium that includes the California Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Membership in the consortium is NOT a prerequisite to apply for TRISH awards and investigators new to space life science research are particularly encouraged to apply to TRISH opportunities.
Operating as a virtual institute, TRISH employs multiple platforms to stay connected, inform and most importantly, source innovations. The institute maintains a small footprint via a modest office in Houston, TX and has representatives in innovation hubs on the east
