A window in the newly added Russian module offers this view of the @Space_Station. That’s me in the Cupola, taking in the sights of our spectacular planet.

Proud beyond words to see my first Ph.D. student, @Pame_FloresA, win 1st place on the Technical Merit #ASGSR2021 Art competition and 3rd place on graduate poster, both based on her #biofilms work on #ISS! Go Pame!! 🚀 ✨ @CUBoulderMCDB @BioServeST @CUEngineering

The study tests human skeletal muscle cells from donors on Earth. The cells form a 3D early stage muscle fiber here on @Space_Station in the BioCell unit. @Astro_Sabot uses a microscope to allow researchers on Earth to observe and track the cellular transition.

Microgravity speeds up bone and muscle loss, allowing us to study such conditions faster in space than on Earth. I’m working on the Cardinal Muscle experiment, which could pave the way for quicker testing of muscle loss treatments! go.nasa.gov/3slv3Jq

Very cool! We at @BioServeST have sent yeast on #SpaceShuttle and to #ISS multiple times. In fact, we are soon sending yeast around the Moon on Artemis I, together with our collaborators, in our Deep Space Radiation Genomics experiment. Go yeast! colorado.edu/faculty/zea-lui…

The next #Cygnus cargo mission to the station will deliver over 2,300 pounds of new science experiments including a muscle study and 3-D printing investigation. #SpaceToGround

.@Astro_Sabot and I are conducting an experiment called Celestial Immunity, which studies how gravity affects functional immune response. It could uncover new immune pathways useful for the development of new vaccines and drugs to prevent and treat diseases.

I didn't "grow up" doing the kind of lab work I'm doing on @Space_Station, so I'm glad to have an expert on the ground looking over my shoulder and talking me through it!

CARDINAL HEART: @StanfordCVI @UCSBengineering @BioServeST are excited to participate in this @NASA mission studying effects of #microgravity on human heart tissues in @Space_Station. @Stanford_ChEMH @StanfordDeptMed @drlucieinthesky @ISS_Research @StanCVFellows @ncats_nih_gov
💙☄️Hearts, Airlocks, and Asteroids: The 21st @SpaceX cargo resupply mission, set to launch from @NASAKennedy, will carry a variety of critical @ISS_Research & technology to the @Space_Station. Check out the highlights of the payloads aboard Dragon: go.nasa.gov/3pxwsed

@Astro_SEAL did an amazing job today! Big thanks to @NASA @ISS_CASIS and @BoeingSpace for all their support and @BioServeST for their help!
Cancer research is underway aboard the @Space_Station. Today @Astro_SEAL worked on the Onco-Selectors experiment which seeks to use microgravity to identify potential cancer therapies.

Yesterday, our experimental supplies were unpacked by @Astro_SEAL onboard the @Space_Station. Our cells are now growing under microgravity inside the SABL incubator. @nasa @ISS_CASIS @BoeingSpace #ng14
Cancer, the 2nd leading cause of death in the US, will likely surpass heart disease as the leading killer by 2030. Onboard the @Space_Station, @Astro_SEAL unpacked research by @kernalbio aiming for safe, effective, tolerable, affordable medicines to treat leukemia & other cancer.

A rare moment in @BoulderColorado’s history as the Holiday Star has been powered back on to serve as a beacon of hope. #TheLightShinesOn over @CUBoulder.

When you’re hanging around the Space Station Processing Facility (SSPF) @NASAKennedy and supporting @ncats_nih_gov and @ISS_CASIS teams launching #ChipsInSpace projects on #CRS20, one must maintain a professional demeanor at all times..... Oh well. 😂

Happy #NationalScienceDay! Growing STEM cells on orbit was just one of the fun and interesting investigations I performed on @Space_Station.

Last night's @BoulderColorado sunset over @CUBoulder's Aerospace Building looked like something out of a dream. 🌅 Thanks to Stefanie Countryman for snapping this photo and reminding us how beautiful Colorado is. #COwx
