Methods

The committee developed this interim report and arrived at conclusions and recommendations regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the Bioastronautics Roadmap (BR) during a 13-month period from April 2004 to May 2005. During this time, the committee held four data-gathering sessions; made one site visit to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas; and met in closed session seven times to deliberate. Agendas for the open, data-gathering sessions of these meetings are included in this appendix.
