Ms. Jessica Quenzer shares an update from Kristoff Misquitta, Stuy's 2020 Genes in Space winner, who has been working on making his experimental proposal a reality:
In February, Kristoff completed GiS's first virtual space camp. Using equipment sent to his home, he conducted the experiment the astronauts will perform on the ISS. You can see photos of his experience here: https://www.genesinspace.org/news/blog/celebrating-our-first-virtual-space-biology-camp/.
April's next steps for Kristoff is submission of the NASA Investigation Summary Form, documentation for the astronauts, and a virtual presentation to Boeing engineers!
On top of this, Kristoff promoted this year's contest via Facebook webinars and TikToks:
