iss060e062282 (Sept. 13, 2019) --- Expedition 60 Flight Engineer Andrew Morgan of NASA conducts research for the Microgravity Crystals investigation that crystallizes a membrane protein that is integral to tumor growth and cancer survival. Results may support the development of cancer treatments that target the protein more effectively and with fewer side effects. Morgan is pictured setting up protein crystal samples for observing and photographing inside a microscope. The samples were then stowed inside a specialized incubator, also known as the Space Automated Bioproduct Laboratory.
