NASA 如何利用「器官晶片」研究太空中的健康問題
How NASA Uses 'Organ Chips' to Study Health in Space
為準備未來前往月球與火星的任務,美國國家航空暨太空總署正在利用創新的「器官晶片」。
To prepare for future missions to the Moon and Mars, NASA is utilizing innovative "organ chips."
藉由AVATAR計畫,研究人員利用太空人的幹細胞創造出一個「生物化身」,能在即時狀況下體驗太空環境。
Through the AVATAR program, researchers use stem cells from astronauts to create a "biological avatar" that experiences space conditions in real time.
透過與哈佛大學懷斯研究所及美國國家衛生研究院等夥伴合作,NASA正確保在軌道上取得的發現能持續改善我們地球家園中每個人的醫療照護。
By collaborating with partners like Harvard’s Wyss Institute and the NIH, NASA is ensuring that the discoveries made in orbit continue to improve health care for everyone here on our home planet.
