On May 11, 2023. We co-organized a webinar, along with Space Applications Services NV/SA (ICE Cubes Service) and Japan Manned Space Systems Corporation (JAMSS), presenting the work of Dr. Anne Wilson, Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Butler University, about the use of publicly available data to perform a meta-analysis on crystals grown in microgravity.
During this webinar attendees heard about the experience of Space Applications Services NV/SA and Japan Manned Space Systems Corporation (JAMSS) in supporting different private and public institutions to conduct research on board the International Space Station, and the new opportunities for growing crystals in space.
Agenda:
Welcoming words and “Growing crystals in microgravity” highlights by: Dr. Hilde Stenuit, ICE Cubes Business Development, Space Applications Services NV/SA
