Abstract

Spaceflight concurrently subjects biology to a variety of different stressors in addition to microgravity. For instance, ionising radiation conditions that organisms encounter in space differ significantly from those they typically encounter on Earth in terms of both quality and quantity. However, accessing and comprehending data on radiation exposure during space missions is sometimes difficult, which hinders research into how radiation affects organisms in the particular context of spaceflight. We created the Rad-Bio-App to aid with this problem. The user may examine these experiments both in terms of their radiation exposure and via their other metadata and outcomes using this web-accessible database, which imports radiation metadata from experiments preserved in NASA's GeneLab data repository. In order to help radiation biologists and non-specialist researchers view and comprehend the effects of ionising radiation on diverse biological systems in the context of spaceflight, Rad-Bio-App offers an intuitive, graphically driven environment.
