As exploration class missions expand in duration and distance from Earth, especially for Lunar and Mars surface missions1,2, advancements in crew health surveillance and increased medical autonomy become paramount3. Newly emerging precision health methods and technology offer opportunities to achieve these goals, through their implementation into the evolving Environmental Control and Life Support System and Crew Health and Performance (ECLSS-CHP) architecture4 . This white paper will outline a comprehensive in-flight precision health system informed by individualized genetic, molecular, clinical, and environmental information to maintain crew health and performance during spaceflight.
