Space-Induced Neurodegeneration: Risks of Long-Term Missions

Long-term space missions pose significant risks of neurodegeneration due to the unique and extreme conditions encountered in space. These conditions include microgravity, radiation exposure, and isolation, which collectively impact the central nervous system (CNS) and can lead to neurodegenerative changes similar to those seen in terrestrial diseases. The effects on astronauts’ mental and physical health […]

Antisense Technology

Imagine your body’s cells are tiny factories that produce different products, such as proteins, which are essential for your health. The instructions for making these proteins are stored in your DNA. When a certain protein needs to be made, the DNA instructions are copied into a molecule called messenger RNA, AKA the mRNA. This then
