About
Laure Sabatier is a leading figure in space radiobiology, whose work is critical to enabling humanity’s next giant leaps. Her research focuses on quantifying and mitigating the health risks posed by cosmic radiation during long-duration spaceflight, particularly for missions to the Moon and Mars. Her most-cited paper, “Towards sustainable human space exploration—priorities for radiation research” (2023, 63 citations), outlines a strategic roadmap for the field, identifying key gaps in our understanding of how space radiation affects human biology and proposing priorities for future study. This influential work has helped shape international research agendas for the coming decade. Beyond this, Sabatier has made foundational contributions to understanding the biological effects of ionizing radiation, including studies on chromosomal aberrations and cellular responses that underpin risk assessment models used by space agencies. Her research bridges fundamental radiobiology with applied astronaut health, ensuring that as we prepare for regular lunar flights and crewed Mars missions by 2030, we do so with the best possible science to protect explorers. Sabatier’s work is essential reading for any student or researcher interested in the intersection of radiation biology and human space exploration.
