In light of an upcoming new era of human expansion in the universe, such as future space travel to Mars, the microbiome of the closed space environment needs to be examined thoroughly to identify the types of microorganisms that can accumulate in this unique environment, how long they persist and survive and their impact on human health and spacecraft infrastructure. As part of this NASA initiative, the viable microbial communities on ISS surfaces from eight different locations over three flight missions, spanning 14 months, were characterized using culture-based techniques, qPCR and amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer region using the Illumina platform. Across three flight samplings, K. pneumoniaereads, an opportunistic BSL-2 pathogen, were retrieved during Flight 1 and successively its reads persisted in Flight 2. Subsequently, in Flight 3, most of the locations were inflicted with the presence of this opportunistic pathogen. Other noticeable opportunistic pathogens of all flights were A. baumannii, E. cloacae, S. enterica,and S. sonneias well as some fungi. None of the pathogenic fungi were persistent in any of the locations sampled.

From June 12 to 15, 2016, the second Core Technologies in Life Sciences (CTLS) conference was held at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Germany. The CTLS grew out of a sense in the core facilities community that there was no single organization that could provide direct representation of all European core facility scientists. In April 2013, Spencer Shorte, the director of the Imagopole imaging platform at Institut Pasteur in Paris, hosted a meeting where numerous stakeholders from throughout Europe and beyond came together to discuss the possibility of forming a new organization to promote and support European core facility science. Presentations and discussions focused on what the attendees would like to see in a core facility association based in Europe. George Grills, Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) Executive Board member, spoke via teleconference, and from the start, connections between CTLS and ABRF were considered essential.
