Biomaterials research in space offers unique opportunities and comes with distinct challenges. The microgravity
environment of space presents a unique opportunity to study the behaviour of biomaterials and biological processes
in novel ways, potentially leading to breakthroughs in fields like tissue engineering, drug development, and materials
science. Additionally, space-based research can yield insights into how microgravity impacts human health, informing
advancements in medical biomaterials.
Biomaterials research in space is still in its infancy, due to the need for specialized equipment, limitations on experimental
duration, and the cost of conducting experiments in space. However, progress made in fundamental understanding of
microgravity on biomaterials and its applications in biology has been exciting
