Category Scope
51 Life Sciences (General)
Includes general research topics related to plant and
animal biology (non-human); ecology; microbiology; and also the origin,
development, structure, and maintenance, of animals and plants in space
and related environmental conditions. For specific topics in life sciences
see categories 52 through 55.
Definition
Life Sciences – A collective discipline encompassing
biology, physiology, psychology, medicine, and sometimes sociology and
other related areas. NASA Thesaurus, Washington, DC: National
Aeronautics and Space Administration.
NASA Interest
Exhaustive Interest : Effects of space environments
and simulated space environments on plants, animals, and microorganisms;
diurnal effects on animals and plants.
Selective Interest : Studies of genetics,
sterilization, biology, botany, zoology, and diurnal studies having potential
aerospace implications or applications.
Negative Interest : Biological and agricultural
research having no relation to aerospace.
