She is also the co-lead of the C-MIST project, a collaboration with Space for Humanity to conduct a comprehensive patient-centered review of common medical conditions and the risks associated with suborbital flight and short-duration exposure to microgravity.

The Overview 02/24

As we honor the legacy and achievements of Black Americans this month, we at S4H are motivated by the words of Dr. Mae Jemison, the first Black woman in space.
