TRISH: Exploring Health's New Frontiers
Join us in advancing humanity’s deep space exploration.
The Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH) is a lean, virtual institute empowered by the NASA Human Research Program to solve the challenges of human deep space exploration. We relentlessly seek and support high-impact science and technologies to enable every human to explore the Moon and Mars safely. We find and fund disruptive, breakthrough approaches that reduce risks to human health and performance. TRISH supports both high-risk early-stage research as well as pre-seed and seed-stage health technologies that can be modified for use by astronauts in deep space exploration. Led by Baylor College of Medicine's Center for Space Medicine, our consortium leverages partnerships with Caltech and MIT.
TRISH seeks to help all humans thrive in deep space- read more about our how we get there in TRISH’s Strategic Plan.
TRISH Strategic Plan
Humans exploring deep space will be physically, intellectually, and emotionally challenged in ways beyond our current understanding. The Institute invests in health and human performance research and technologies to overcome spaceflight hazards and successfully complete their missions. Landing women and men on the moon and Mars and returning them home healthy calls for reinvention of healthcare, so it can be delivered off planet.
To execute the Institute’s mission, TRISH will prioritize six strategic goals outlined in its Strategic Report.
