NASA Space Radiation Element Initiatives

The Space Radiation Element (SRE) with the Human Research Program (HRP) and NASA is tasked with the
mission of characterizing and facilitating the management of the human health outcomes associated with
space radiation exposure to ultimately protect astronaut health as well as enable human space
exploration. To facilitate our mission, we provide funding for space radiation research but also provide
several unique opportunities discussed below to educate and disseminate space radiation knowledge.
