Update on our experiment on International Space Station

We are happy to share video on Yeast TardigradeGene, our experiment performed at present at International Space Station within the first Polish technological and scientific mission to the International Space Station (Ignis), being a part of the Axiom 4 (Ax-4) mission.

Yeast TardigradeGene is implemented in a consortium of three universities, i.e., AMU, the University of Silesia, and the University of Szczecin. The AMU team consists of the members of IBMiB, i.e., Nina Antos-Krzemińska, Andonis Karachitos, Anna Kicińska,  Hanna Kmita and Prof. UAM Łukasz Kaczmarek from the Institute of Environmental Biology.
