Hi all!
I'm a University student in Texas currently finishing up my B.S. in Neurobiology, and will be heading off to medical school in the near future. I grew up as a NASA kid (both parents work for NASA, lived five minutes from JSC/Mission Control) and still keep up with NASA projects and developments, so this project certainly piqued my interest. Although I lack any formal education in aerospace and/or engineering, I would like to help in any way I can. I 'd imagine if the project does survive in the long-term and moves towards its goals, eventually M.D.'s could play a role in the manned program.
Anyways, happy to be here!

Medical doctors are definitely a specialty that we will need for this project to become a success. When someone asks if they can be of assistance to the project I think of a quote from the movie Apollo 13:
"The astronaut is only the most visible member of a very large team, and all of us, right down to the guy sweeping the floor, are honored to be a part of it."
No matter what your skill, it is vital to the ultimate accomplishment to the goal.

Welcome to the team! I suspect you would be far more helpful than you expect. We're going to need medical knowledge for the design of our life support system and medical telemetry capabilities, for one thing. Besides, new, enthusiastic members are great for the project, no matter what skills you bring to the table. I look forward to working with you.
