[1] She is working with Mae Jemison on 100 Year Starship, an interdisciplinary initiative that is exploring the possibility of human interstellar travel.
John Taylor, Ray Vanderby, Jr, and Jennifer L. West, as well as individuals not directly involved in her training, such as Mae Jemison.
[7] Her research looks to make wounds heal faster using cell therapy, work that could revolutionize the recovery time of people who require plastic surgery.
[12] She has studied the way that the body adapts to the space environment,[13] in order to identify mechanisms that protect astronauts from the effects of microgravity, by using tissue engineering approaches to stimulate growth, regeneration, and repair.
