I'm currently working with plants but I have a bigger interest in Astrobiology. I'm looking for someone who works in both areas or that is interested in this. I thought about a project to study radiation protection using medicinal plants. Can anyone help me?
Thank you!
Astrobiology is the study of the origin, evolution, distribution, and future of life in the universe: extraterrestrial life and life on Earth (cited from Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrobiology ).
I will be wrong, but I guess you may wish to mean "space biology" by "astrobiology", then wish to mean "space radiation biology to seek radioprotective agents derived from medicinal plants" by "radiation protection using medicinal plants".
Anyway please clarify.
Yes, "space biology" actually fits better. The study of Astrobiology involves lots of fields but in fact working with medicinal plants would fit better in other areas. But I would also be interested in working with plants in astrobiology. There is a lot of studies about plant growth in micro gravity or without gravity, in diferent soils, and so on. So basically I'm looking for someone who would be interested in astrobiology or "space biology" with plants in general.
Thank you for pointing that out.
