Presentation Transcript

  1. NASA Research at NCRR supported facilities Anthony Hayward M.D., Ph.D. Director, Division for Clinical Research Resources, NCRR

  2. Current Areas of NCRR Space-Related Health Research • NASA research ongoing at 10 clinical research sites: 9 GCRCs • Annual costs about $1.5M • Principal topics: • Bed rest related to demineralization • immune function • Anesthesia • Endocrinology

  3. Promising Areas for Space-Related Health Research Collaborations • NCRR provides: • Access to controlled environments • Specialized cores & equipment • Clinical informatics • NASA resources include: • Translational technologies, approaches and techniques • Collaborative philosophy

  4. What existing resources could be developed to facilitate space-related health research? • Build on BIRN experience to integrate and compare imaging and other measurement (e.g., DEXA) data • Pilot a program to explore defined vocabularies for NASA research • Assist in achieving recruitment goals, perhaps with subject recruitment cores
