About this work
jsc2024e016252 (10/21/2016) --- While in the ISS astronauts’ immune system and clotting capacity undergoes changes during spaceflight, we will be studying how megakaryocytes (depicted in the image), specialized cells functioning in infection responses and blood clotting, are specifically affected during spaceflight and after landing back on earth. This information directly influences the health of future space travelers.
