Nationality | Emirati |
Education | Al Mawakeb Schools |
Known for | Winning the Genes In Space UAE competition in 2017 |
Alia Al Mansoori (born July 23, 2002[ citation needed]) is an Emirati teenage pupil at Al Mawakeb School. In 2017 she won the Genes in Space UAE competition, with a proposal to study how exposure to space affects the health of live organisms at cellular level. Her experiment was loaded onto the August 2017 SpaceX CRS-12 mission. [1] Al Mansoori's experiment studied the expression of heat-shock proteins in space, establishing that the genes turning them on could be detected. The results of the experiment are not yet known but most likely will be revealed soon. [2]
Al Mansoori plans to study genetics at university, [2] ultimately pursuing postgraduate study to become an astronaut. Her dream "is to be the first Emirati woman to visit Mars". [3]
