Metagenomics in Spaceflight Workshop Nov. 19-22

The Planetary Protection Metagenomics in Spaceflight workshop is in response to the 2022 Multi-Mission Metagenomics Technology Development Workshop Report, as current culture-based approaches are biased and insufficient for future exploration targets and missions.

A multinational (ESA, JAXA, COSPAR, NASA) team of space life scientists is seeking to build an actionable plan to close the gaps between the current state of the art and implementation. The workshop includes a broad range of stakeholders across many mission areas such as planetary protection, space biology, astrobiology, crew monitoring and health.

Presentations may include topics on:

  • Low Biomass
  • Safety Critical Decision Making
  • Human Health and Built Environment
  • Technology Needs
  • Bioinformatics and Databases
  • Summary Roadmap to Implementation
