Abstract

Advances in bioastronautics encompassing the study and support of life in space have applications that enhance health on Earth. Clinical benefits of bioastronautics include new knowledge, approaches, and technologies for screening, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. The benefits are far-reaching and positively impact healthcare delivery from top-tier medical centers to rural communities to harsh remote environments with restricted access to medical care.
