Space is becoming our next great innovation frontier as we move from 700 astronauts spending days or months to tens of thousands spending years. What does that do to the human body? What does it mean for our species? Eliah Overbey, Assistant Professor of Bioastronautics at the University of Austin, joins the podcast to explore topics in the increasingly blurred line between science fiction and science fact.

Episode Highlights

  • What is Bioastronautics?
  • Space's Impact on Human Biology
  • Current Space Medicine and Healthcare Challenges
  • The Commercialization of Space and NASA's Evolving Role
  • UATX's Unique Approach
  • The SOMA Summit and Space Research Community
  • Genetic Modification for Mars
  • Human Evolution with Space Colonization
  • What's Next Austin?
    • "I'm working on building at UATX is I'm getting a bioastronautics lab started up...More and more people go to space, we're going to have more and more people that we want to sequence to...answer these questions in a more scientifically rigorous way, get our end value higher than before in a single experiment."
