The NASA GeneLab project (genelab.nasa.gov) seeks to get the most from space-relevant biology experiments by providing and maintaining a public database consisting of DNA, RNA, protein, and metabolite data from spaceflight experiments. Since these types of data, referred to as omics data, are difficult to understand for non-bioinformaticians, the GeneLab data processing team works with the scientific community to develop methods to process these data. The processed data found on GeneLab reveals information about which genes are turned on and turned off in the space environment, which helps us understand how space changes our biology and how we can best mitigate these effects to travel deeper into space.
