SpaRTAN Lab Collaborators

Space radiation research requires a multidisciplinary approach; and the group partners closely with radiobiologists, aerospace physicians, engineers,  applied scientist, and commercial spaceflight industr to develop novel methods for studying the interaction of the heavy-charged nuclei found in the cosmic ray spectrum.

NewAperio

NewAperio crafts delightful, thoughtful, and beautiful apps. They provide web and mobile design and development services, including expert Phoenix/Elixir, Rails/Ruby, React, and React Native consulting. NewAperio is partnering with the SpaRTAN lab in our efforts to develop radiation technology that will be flown on SpaceX's upcoming Inspiration 4 mission. The results will be new capabilities for radiation detectors to be easily flown during commercial spaceflights (details coming soon!)

Do Sperm Squirm the Same in Space?

The Micro-11 flight experiment will help determine the effect of space flight on sperm capacitation and signal transduction changes compared to parallel samples on the ground. SpaRTAN lab is collaborating with PI Joseph Tash, Ph.D. the University of Kansas Medical Center by providing dosimetry analyses of the samples flown on ISS during Expedition 56. The LEONIDIS team is providing support with analysis of the radiation data collected during the experiment onboard the International Space Station.
