Biomedical Research in Space

Biomedical research in space involves studying the effects of microgravity and space environment on living organisms, including humans. This research aims to understand how factors like weightlessness, radiation, and isolation affect health. By conducting experiments on the International Space Station (ISS) and other platforms, scientists can investigate various topics, such as muscle atrophy, bone density loss, and changes in the immune system. Findings from this research not only enhance our understanding of human biology and potential health risks in space travel but also provide insights that can improve medical treatments on Earth.
