One twin in space, the other on Earth: Biomedical comparisons

Post by bhamil »

This Thursday's Wall Street Journal had a great article titled: Astronauts Can Withstand Longer Space Trips, New Study of Twins Finds

The story was about one twin in space, the other on Earth: Biomedical comparisons show how a year in orbit revs up genetic activity and fine-tunes brain power. It is interesting reading. Just give me a call if you cannot find the 4-11-19 WSJ article and I will be happy to send it you.

FYI,
