Duckweed Labs is developing a compact Duckweed Protein Supplement Dispenser (DPSD) that leverages the plant’s rapid growth and high protein content to sustain astronauts on long-duration missions. This same innovation will soon support communities on Earth facing food scarcity.
===============================================================
Research & Technology
We are creating a compact, low-maintenance solution for delivering tasty, fresh protein and nutrients in microgravity. This approach reduces reliance on costly supply missions, supports astronaut well-being, and aligns with NASA’s vision for sustainable exploration.
We are a dynamic, multi-institutional team with expertise in engineering, logistics, life sciences, and creative design. Led by Principal Investigator Thomas Liu, our group includes PhD candidates, military veterans, award-winning creatives, and medical students—all united by a passion for space exploration. Together, we are engineering an efficient, sustainable solution for astronaut nutrition, and beyond.
