Space-Based Clinical Research: Framework, Tech, & Beyond

In this course, we are going to explore the role of space in clinical research. We will learn about the foundations of earth-based clinical research and trials, challenges, opportunities in space, and the effect of microgravity on the structure and lifecycle of cells in our body.

We will also discuss a few case studies related to space-based clinical research and trials conducted by universities and research organizations across the world. Learn the framework you can use to make space-based clinical research and trials safe, advanced and efficient. Case Studies included.

This course aims to provide you with a simplified overview of space-based clinical research framework using simplified explanations, clear diagrams, and use cases.

We will be covering the following topics in this course:

• Foundations of Clinical Trials
• Challenges in Earth-Based Clinical Research
• Role of Space (Microgravity) in Clinical Research
• Space Clinical Research Case Study 1 – NASA’s Twin Trial
• Space Clinical Research Case Study 2 – Oncology Research
• Space Clinical Research Case Study 3 – Decoding Structure of KRAS Protein
• Challenges in Space-based Clinical Research & Trials
• SAFE-SpaceRF Framework – Framework for Safe, Advanced, & Efficient Clinical Research

This is the first version of this course and it will be updated as we continue to witness breakthroughs in the field of clinical trials. My aim is to make this knowledge accessible to a global audience, empowering learners to understand and apply modern frameworks that address challenges in clinical trials throughout their professional journey.

You will benefit from this course if:

• You want to understand the challenges we face in Earth-based Clinical Research
• You want to learn the foundations of Space, Microgravity, and its role in Clinical Research
• You want to learn how leading institutions are conducting Space-based clinical research with a focus on oncology and cardiovascular diseases
• You have a genuine interest in improving your understanding of Space-based Clinical Research

Hope you will enjoy this course!
