Dr Cat has an out-of-this-world conversation with Lee Conneely from the ARC Centre of Excellence in Plants for Space. Lee studies how we can insert the genetic instructions for plant-based medicines into other plants so that they can grow the medicines for us. Can we grow tomatoes in space for astronauts to eat the tomatoes and harvest medicine from the leaves? Can we use industrial hemp to produce big yields of different medicines? The idea seems light years ahead or like science fiction, but it is a reality…and a pretty vine idea.
