Scott RA, Tarver WJ, Brunstetter TJ, Urquieta E.

Optic nerve tortuosity on Earth and in space.

Aerosp Med Hum Perform. 2020 Feb 1;91(2):91-7. Review.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31980047

Journal Impact Factor: 0.889

Funding: “Emmanuel Urquieta was supported by the Translational Research Institute for Space Health through NASA NNX-16AO69A.”

Axpe E, Chan D, Abegaz MF, Schreurs AS, Alwood JS, Globus RK, Appel EA.

A human mission to Mars: Predicting the bone mineral density loss of astronauts.

PLoS One. 2020 Jan 23;15(1):e0226434.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31967993

Note: The authors introduce “a predictive mathematical model for the BMD loss defined by an exponential decrease in load bearing bones of the astronauts. By using this model, we predict BMD loss in the femoral neck for two potential missions to Mars.” This article may be obtained online without charge.

Journal Impact Factor: 11.048

Funding: “EAA is thankful for funding from the Center for Human Systems Immunology with Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation OPP1113682. E.A. is thankful for funding support from a Stanford Bio-X Interdisciplinary Initiatives Program Round 8 (2016) Seed Grant, a postdoctoral fellowship of the Basque Government and the Basque Government Grant No. IT-1005-16. D.C. is grateful for an award by the Department of Defense, Air Force Office of Scientific Research, National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (ND-SEG) Fellowship, 32 CFR168a with government support under FA9550-11-C-0028.” E. Axpe, M.F. Abegaz, A-S. Schreurs, J.S. Alwood, and R.K. Globus are affiliated with NASA Ames Research Center.

Occam’s broom* and the dirty DSB: Cytogenetic perspectives on cellular response to changes in track structure and ionization density.

Int J Radiat Biol. 2020 Jan 23. [Epub ahead of print] Review.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31971454

PI: M.N. Cornforth

Note: From the Footnote: “*As opposed to Occam’s Razor, ‘Occam’s Broom’ was introduced by the late Sydney Brenner (1927-2019) to describe a situation in which inconvenient facts are ‘swept under the rug’ for the convenience of preserving a popular scientific narrative. (S. Brenner, Curr. Biol (3) p 202 1997).”

Journal Impact Factor: 6.203

Funding: “This work was funded by grant NNX15AG74G from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).”
