National Space Biomedical Research Institute: 1997-2017
NSBRI mitigated risks inherent to long duration human spaceflight while translating research findings to improve health on Earth. The Institute partnered with NASA, academia and industry to achieve these goals, while at the same time inspired and trained the next generation of space life scientists, physicians, engineers and astronauts.
