Using data from experiments on space station, we're working with scientists around the world to build an open database of biological molecules. GeneLab is mapping the genes of organisms on the station and making that collection available to anyone so other scientists can develop and test out their own hypotheses. The collaborative tool is a new way of doing research that could accelerate scientific breakthroughs for years to come. | International Space Station
