Leading the Deep Space Radiation & Microgravity Challenge A collaborative framework addressing the biological barriers to safe human Mars missions.
I believe in evidence-based approaches to space exploration that prioritize astronaut safety and mission success. My role is to connect specialists across disciplines and maintain focus on the fundamental biological problems rather than political or commercial timelines.
