Christina M. Johnson is a plant biologist with her mind fixed in space. In April of 2010 she watched her plants blast into orbit on the Space Shuttle Discovery. She spent the next several years analyzing those samples for her PhD, where she learned about the impact of microgravity on the cellular structure and molecular functions in young plants. She is currently a fellow in the NASA Postdoctoral Program, working with Dr. Raymond Wheeler’s Space Crop Production team at Kennedy Space Center. Her project involves collaboration with the USDA to grow microgreens in simulated microgravity, with a goal of getting microgreen crops ready for spaceflight applications.
