Lessons Learned from Space

Astronaut and LSU Health New Orleans Associate Professor of Clinical Medicine Dr. Serena Auñón-Chancellor will talk about what it was like spending 197 consecutive days in orbit and aboard the International Space Station. On two expeditions in 2018, Dr. Auñón-Chancellor and her fellow astronauts contributed to hundreds of experiments in biology, biotechnology, physical science, and Earth science while living aboard the space station. The experience profoundly impacted her and her work now as a physician and professor who trains the next generation of doctors.

LSU Science Café is presented in partnership with Campus Federal Credit Union and WRKF.
