Hello!

Guys, **I’m doing a research in the area of materials and space nanomedicine** and I would like to know if you had **some links or articles that I can take advantage of for my research.**

It would be about the following subjects:

- Light Alloys and Advanced Materials
- Self-repairable Materials
- Radiation Shielding
- Light Alloys and Advanced Materials

Thank you!

Have you explored the Physical Sciences Informatics repository?

> **[NASA PSI](https://psi.nasa.gov/physci/repo/search?q=&data_source=psi&data_type=investigation)**

There are a number of datasets connected to materials, but also biophysics, fluids, all which could be relevant? I’d do a deep dive into those PSI data

Would need a bit more on exactly what your research is looking at, to think of anything more, refs, ideas, other potential data

@marinafreitas - any thoughts on ideas or questions I can answer? Did you find the Physical Sciences Informatics data useful?

You could message @Subhayu if questions on the PSI data, or project ideas you’d like to explore for mining its data

Out thin team is a bit thinner during the shutdown but I should be available to try and answer any questions about PSI.

Regards, Subhayu

Hi Marina @marinafreitas -

We currently do not have any investigations related to radiation shielding in PSI but since i have worked some in that field here are some suggestions to get you started:
