Exploring Health's New Frontiers
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. TRISH relentlessly pursues and funds novel research to deliver high-impact scientific and technological solutions that advance space health and help humans thrive wherever they explore, in space or on Earth. Led by Baylor College of Medicine's Center for Space Medicine, our consortium leverages partnerships with Caltech and MIT.
Join us in advancing humanity’s deep space exploration.
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.
In TRISH’s strategic plan we outline six, prioritized goals to advance our mission and help all humans thrive in deep space. Learn more:
