About this file

This presentation details NASA Ames Research Center's deep space biology research hardware and infrastructure for the Ames Partnership Days in April 2025. The document highlights multiple innovative research technologies, including:

The E-Nose chemical detection system, an intelligent and compact analytical tool that identifies chemical mixtures with high sensitivity, tested on US Navy satellites and the International Space Station. Other key technologies include the Vented Fly Box for Drosophila melanogaster experiments in space, a Bioculture System for culturing microorganisms, a BioSensor for multiwell fluid experimentation, and human organ models for studying space-related health impairments. NASA Ames demonstrates capabilities in ground-breaking research, experimental hardware development, model biological systems creation, open data and specimen sharing, and scientific community fostering across various platforms including the International Space Station, lunar missions, and terrestrial research environments.

Human Organ Models for Health in Deep Space

Facilitating research on space-mediated impairments to complex multicellular systems of the human body

• Long-lasting, personalized, human lung and brain organoids

• Genetically engineered cellular reporters of biological effects of ionizing radiation

• Microfluidic systems for organoid maintenance on bench

• Fluorescence, luminescence, absorbance and dissolved signaling molecule-based quantification of biological responses

Human organ models are ideal research tools for:

1. Precision health to investigate and mitigate individual-level health risks.

2. Automated experiments for space biology research beyond low-Earth orbit or in the lab.
