Exploring Life in Space with Underground Experiments

 

Carlos Peña Garay (Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc)

Thursday, 15th January 2025, 12:00 (CET) (Auditorio/Zoom)

 

After briefly present the astroparticle physics projects, I will discuss the LSC research projects approved in the Biology Platform, an infrastructure hosting biology experiments on surface and underground since 2022 which explore the implications of cosmic silence on cellular processes. The list of projects includes, among others, the evolution of viral infection, the origin of multicellularity, the first developmental stages of fishes or aging of human cells. I will present the results of the first experiments which show a differential biological response to the absence of muons and the experimental setup to simulate abiotic stresses influencing life in space by also including microgravity and irradiation with protons.
