Long-term spaceflight leads to profound changes in multiple organs systems attributable to unloading and fluid shifts in microgravity. Future space explorations beyond low earth orbit will expose astronauts to space radiation, which may result in additional deficits that are not yet fully understood.The Space Life Sciences Research and Applications Division is hosting a lunch and learn briefing by Dr. Ruth Globus of the Ames Research Center. The topic is how living in space causes changes in the human body that resemble age-related diseases on earth (like osteoporosis), and how we experimentally explore coping responses.modulating the responses of bone to the challenges of spaceflight. This presentation will highlight how knowledge from studies on fundamental bone biology can inform the design of intervention strategies against spaceflight-induced bone loss.
