Beyond Earth: Exploring Plant Life and Scientific Innovations in Space Farming
Tune into Radio Gdańsk today at 2 PM for an exciting episode of “Innovative Włodzimierz” featuring Łukasz Szydłowski.
Łukasz Szydłowski will discuss his groundbreaking research on space life, his aspirations for growing plants in extraterrestrial environments, and his insights from his latest publication, “Adaptation to space conditions of novel bacterial species isolated from the International Space Station revealed by functional gene annotations and comparative genome analysis.”
Listeners will also gain an understanding of his collaboration with Tomek Kościółek’s Structural and Functional Genomics Group at Sano and the pioneering AstroFarms project. These collaborative efforts aim to explore and harness the potential of space farming, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in astrobiology and biotechnology.
