  • Dr Kenneth Savin, Redwire | Groundbreaking ISS Biotech Discoveries
    Aug 4 2025
    This episode features our conversation with Dr Kenneth A. Savin, Chief Scientist at Redwire. Dr. Savin was named to TIME’s “2025 TIME100 Health List of the 100 Most Influential People in Global Health.” We discuss his 20-plus year career and expertise in the pharmaceutical industry and his pioneering work accelerating cutting-edge space biotech research capabilities, leveraging microgravity to improve human health on Earth. At Redwire, Dr. Savin has overseen trailblazing investigations onboard the International Space Station (ISS) in partnership with NASA and the ISS National Laboratory. Redwire successfully bioprinted the first human knee meniscus and first live human cardiac tissue using its BioFabrication Facility on the ISS. These breakthroughs address challenges faced by millions of people worldwide through the application of organ transplantation and tissue therapy and advance the next generation of pharmaceutical therapies. Dr. Savin has coordinated groundbreaking protein crystallization investigations onboard the ISS with pharmaceutical companies like Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) and Bristol Myers Squibb using Redwire’s in-space pharmaceutical lab, PIL-BOX, for improved drug development. These investigations have focused on various applications to address the world’s most prevalent conditions, including antiviral, antifungal, and antiseizure applications, heart disease, and bone loss.

  • Dr. Catriona Jamieson | The Search for Cancer Cures in Outer Space
    Jun 25 2025
    This episode’s conversation focuses on the innovative work of Dr. Catriona Jamieson, Director of the Sanford Stem Cell Institute at UC San Diego, and the Axiom-4 (Ax-4) launch. This space research mission includes the Institute’s testing of the efficacy of “rebecsnib” on tumor organoids derived from cancer stem cells of consenting patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia, ovarian cancer, metastatic breast cancer and glioblastoma multiforme. The drug holds potential to fight 23 types of cancer — any that involve ADAR1 in their development and progression. The hope is that the investigational new drug prevents the miniature tumors from growing, as it did on Axiom Space’s previous Ax-3 mission, with cell line-derived triple negative breast cancer tumor organoids.
