Space Omics and Medical Atlas (SOMA)
Space Omics and Medical Atlas (SOMA) is a collaborative project aiming to standardize biological measures and data sharing for bioastronautics and spaceflight related -omics data.
Using our established analysis methods from the NASA Twins Study , we are performing comprehensive and integrative multiomics analysis of astronauts, including the crew from the Inspiration4, Polaris Dawn, and Axiom missions. Longitudinal sampling will allow for monitoring the impacts of spaceflight and provide a health service to the crew post-mission. Furthermore, applying the same core protocols in the sample collection, processing, and analysis across multiple missions will allow us to validate and compare our findings with other investigators and space agencies/companies around the world.
