We presented the possibilities of microgravity research at the Long Night of Science under the program item "Biologie trifft Technik".

As part of the Introduction to Medical Science in Space course, our students from the Biomechanical Engineering Master's program visited the “Body Worlds” exhibition in Magdeburg. The aim was to develop a feeling for the properties of our organ systems that are influenced by a stay in space.

Today we had a visit from Yuri and learned how to assemble the Cellbox hardware. Now we can start with the preparations for PRECISE.

Lena's abstract “Spinning Heart: Extracellular Matrix Remodeling Under Simulated Microgravity. Lessons Learnt from RPM Experiments" was selected by the International Society for Gravitational Physiology for a presentation at this year's annual meeting in Sapporo (18.-23.05.2025).

Together with the other science teams of the Cellbox-4/-5 ISS missions (2026), we took part in a kickoff workshop at Yuri today.
