The NASA Open Science Data Repository (expansion of @NASAGeneLab) has enabled biological & health discoveries helping humanity become multi-planetary by helping life thrive in deep space on Mars and 🌘 OSDR stores precious data anyone can use and analyze, plus a community of collaborative users anyone can join, and several public tools/trainings (including AI/ML) for space biology available 🧵

Hot off the press:
Muscle Matters: the Impact of Medically Induced Weight Loss on Skeletal Muscle.

“Regulatory agencies should provide more comprehensive guidelines for monitoring and evaluating body composition changes, mandate well-designed body composition studies, and enhance post-market surveillance."
"GLP-1 receptor agonists have revolutionized obesity treatment and demonstrated substantial benefits... However, the potential impact of muscle mass loss as now observed remains a concern. These highly effective medications should be used strategically, in a multimodal approach to improve the quality of weight loss by optimizing body composition."
Thanks to my dear colleagues/friends: @mackinprof @Kryz5559 and Steven Heymsfield for their partnership!

We had the pleasure of having @csbd7 present the R J Banister Prize Lecture at @HeriotWattUni in Muscle Ageing. Fascinating talk about the mechanisms and how we can counter muscle decline with age. Thanks to @physoc for funding the event and to @HannahLithgow for organising

🚨 A huge collection of papers I've been working on for the past three years has dropped at @Nature today!
The @inspiration4x mission launched in Sept 2021. The biospecimen samples collected by the crew (@rookisaacman, @ArceneauxHayley, @DrSianProctor, and @ChrisSembroski) resulted in a >10-fold increase in the amount of multi-omic sequencing data available to scientific researchers.

I'll highlight the results of our studies from this treasure trove of astronaut data on X in the upcoming days. In the meantime, you can explore the omics data yourself!
