LIBRA is also interested in mechanical unloading of immune cells. Astronauts faced impaired immunity and in our endeavor to contribute towards future long-duration space travels, we investigate the intricacies of immune cell exposure to simulated microgravity. Interestingly, microgravity also provides opportunities for other research that benefits life on Earth. Aging, regenerative medicine, and space pharmaceuticals, are other fields that we pursue and can have an impact on. Finally, we also engineer ‘miniature labs’ to facilitate our studies and continuously seek for opportunities to send our experiments to space for validation studies.
