Summary:

"This detailed book explores advanced techniques specifically designed to address the difficulties and complexities associated with molecular biological inquiry in microgravity conditions. Beginning with the specific space environment and unique systems biology constraints in space, the volume continues with methods on cells and pathways, tissues and physiological apparatus, and specific technological approaches and personalized-based approaches. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters provide the kind of detail and implementation advice that translates to success in the laboratory. Practical and authoritative, Biomedicine and Biotechnology in Space: Molecular Methods serves as an ideal guide for researchers seeking insights into this very complex field of scientific study"-- Springer Nature Link
