It takes many individuals and teams across several disciplines to implement human research before, during and after spaceflight. Each of these individuals/teams has a different view of the research which influences their specific inputs on how to successfully complete these critical research studies. In this session, we will hear from various teams involved in spaceflight research implementation, including researchers, crew members, flight surgeons, and experiment operations, to understand each of these unique viewpoints. The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session where Research Operations and Integration experts will answer your specific questions on the spaceflight research process.

The International Space Station has been an orbiting laboratory for human spaceflight research for over 20 years. NASA’s human research implementation teams have worked to develop, refine, and execute pre-, in-, and post-flight sessions to collect critical research data that will enable future spaceflight missions. The teams have worked closely with the spaceflight vehicle teams, including those for Soyuz and the now retired Space Shuttle vehicles, to successfully conduct this research. As NASA has transitioned to commercial vehicles for transport of crews to the ISS, the implementation teams have expanded their scope to include the SpaceX and upcoming Boeing vehicles. This session will focus on the unique implementation needs for the first available commercial platform, SpaceX. We will identify implementation adjustments made to accommodate the SpaceX Dragon system, including crew training and preflight baseline data collection, inflight operations tied to landing, and postflight planning and crew testing, as well as offer lessons learned from the past three SpaceX long-duration crew missions. Representatives from the Flight Operations Directorate, including the Astronaut Office and the vehicle recovery team, will also provide their perspectives on this new system, and how it affects their work with the human research community. A panel discussion with dedicated time for Q&A will follow.
