Description
Summary:Chambliss and Metts provide a year in review of the research and planning conducted by the Life Sciences and Systems community to enable human exploration of space. NASA's One-Year Mission concluded in 2016 with astronaut Scott Kelly and Russian cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko's return to Earth. Investigators have received most of the blood samples taken from Kelly in orbit and from Kelly's twin on the ground as well as samples from the twins six months after Kelly returned to Earth. Batch sample analysis has begun. Results will be presented at the January Human Research Program Investigators' Workshop in Galveston TX.
