The Space Station Research & Technology web site is maintained by the International Space Station Research Integration Office. The office ensures statoin science, technology applications, business/economic development, research hardware integration, planning, and communications leadership at the highest level within the space station program. The office represents all research on the station, and provides recommendations to the Station Program Manager and to the Space Operations Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters, regarding research on station. This office also consolidates and communicates the research–from experimental design to results–that is operated on and derived from the space station. The International Space Station Research Integration Office is located at NASA/Johnson Space Center in Houston, TX.
