A strategy for research in space biology and medicine in the new century

The Committee on Space Biology and Medicine reviewed and updated prior reports to suggest strategies for research in space biology and medicine based on information gathered since 1987. The report provides a review of biology and medicine that can be studied in the space environment, discusses the fundamental research issues and questions with space biology and medicine disciplines, identifies the most promising experimental challenges in those disciplines, evaluates the potential for space research to provide advances within each discipline, and prioritizes research topics to the extent feasible. Disciplines include sciences which study plant, animal, and human systems at the molecular, cellular, system, and whole-organism levels. The section about physiology, gravity, and space includes cell biology; developmental biology; plants, gravity, and space; sensorimotor integration; bone physiology; skeletal muscle; cardiovascular and pulmonary systems; endocrinology; and immunology. The section about additional space environment issues includes radiation hazards and behavioral issues. The final section examines setting priorities in research and programmatic and policy issues.

  • "This Web site is an electronic version of a book written in 1998 that addresses the construction of the international space station which will incorporate the experimental use of low gravity and the study of serious physiological changes that occur in astronauts as they remain in space for increasingly longer missions. The book provides a comprehensive review of ground-based and space research in eleven disciplines, ranging from bone physiology to plant biology. In addition, it takes a look into the next decade with detailed, prioritized recommendations for research."@en
