Statement From ISS National Lab Chief Operating Officer Ken Shields:
In view of the impending report of the Independent Review Team (IRT), the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (manager of the International Space Station U.S. National Laboratory) will postpone the upcoming Public Meeting originally scheduled for February 7, 2020. This will allow CASIS and NASA leadership to collectively consider the recommendations of the IRT report and define a strategic path forward that strengthens the role of the ISS National Lab as a unique national R&D platform for innovation and commercialization. We are looking forward to rescheduling the Public Meeting and unveiling this plan to the public in the very near future.
