HLQ Lab Director Dr. Linda Tickle-Degnen moderated the AOTF 2009 Research Colloquium called “Life in Space”. The 2009 Colloquium, which was held in Houston, Texas, on Friday, April 24, welcomed Leroy Chiao, PhD - veteran NASA astronaut of four space flights and former Commander and Science Officer of the International Space Station - who shared his experiences, as well as scientists from occupational therapy and allied disciplines whose research intersects with NASA as the agency addresses not only the challenges of living outside earth and after reentry from space, but also the benefits of such research for understanding daily activity on our planet.
