About us
GeneLab is an interactive, open-access resource where scientists can upload, download, store, search, share, transfer, and analyze omics data from spaceflight and corresponding analogue experiments. Users can explore GeneLab datasets in the Data Repository, analyze data using the Analysis Platform, and create collaborative projects using the Collaborative Workspace. GeneLab promises to facilitate and improve information sharing, foster innovation, and increase the pace of scientific discovery from extremely rare and valuable space biology experiments. Discoveries made using GeneLab have begun and will continue to deepen our understanding of biology, advance the field of genomics, and help to discover cures for diseases, create better diagnostic tools, and ultimately allow astronauts to better withstand the rigors of long-duration spaceflight. GeneLab helps scientists understand how the fundamental building blocks of life itself – DNA, RNA, proteins, and metabolites – change from exposure to microgravity, radiation, and other aspects of the space environment. GeneLab does so by providing fully coordinated epigenomics, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics data alongside essential metadata describing each spaceflight and space-relevant experiment. By carefully curating and implementing best practices for data standards, users can combine individual GeneLab datasets to gain new, comprehensive insights about the effects of spaceflight on biology. In this way, GeneLab extends the scientific knowledge gained from each biological experiment conducted in space, allowing scientists from around the world to make novel discoveries and develop new hypotheses from these priceless data.

We are honored to share that the NASA Open Science Data Repository (OSDR) team participated in the October 4th meeting hosted by the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center. The event featured NASA Ames Research Center, NASA Johnson Space Center, the White House Cancer Moonshot Initiative (Biden Cancer Initiative), other University of California representatives-researchers, and State of California officials (🔗 https://lnkd.in/gyRFKdMh). The day was focused on exploring how space biomedical research can advance cancer research. Pediatric and adult cancer patients met NASA astronauts, NASA Johnson Space Center Director Vanessa Wyche, and Flight Surgeon Josef Schmid. The day’s attendees enjoyed a video down link from astronauts aboard the International Space Station. Six members of the OSDR (🔗 https://www.nasa.gov/osdr/) team participated along with Ames Space Biosciences Division leadership. Presentations from Eugene Tu, Director of NASA Ames, and Sylvain Costes, NASA’s Biological and Physical Sciences Data Officer, highlighted OSDR’s access to quality and machine-readable spaceflight life sciences data, analytical tools, and AI-based discovery tools. UCSF Professor Sergio Baranzini highlighted the existing UCSF-NASA collaboration integrating OSDR with the knowledge graph platform ‘SPOKE’ (Scalable Precision Medicine Open Knowledge Engine; 🔗https://spoke.ucsf.edu/), funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). A keynote by UCSF Professor and Nobel Laureate Elizabeth Blackburn was particularly inspiring, discussing telomeres and she excitedly mentioned her interest in analyzing OSDR data. She noted the significance of telomere elongation in space, a phenomenon recently reported in part by the Analysis Working Group (AWG🔗 https://awg.osdr.space/) around OSDR in the Inspiration4 2024 Nature Portfolio package (🔗 https://lnkd.in/ebmXKTUk), and the 2020 Cell Press package (🔗 https://lnkd.in/gFfqRD2M), demonstrating that such elongation can occur within just a few days in space. In the afternoon, UCSF and UC researchers engaged in scientific roundtable sessions with NASA experts to discuss future collaborations, showing strong interest in OSDR’s data-metadata standards, access to biospecimens from NASA’s Biological Institutional Scientific Collection, and joining the ~800-member AWG around OSDR.
