1 00:00:08,470 --> 00:00:07,030 thank you for joining us here in the 2 00:00:10,790 --> 00:00:08,480 international space station flight 3 00:00:12,709 --> 00:00:10,800 control room as we've mentioned several 4 00:00:15,350 --> 00:00:12,719 times this week marked a big milestone 5 00:00:16,870 --> 00:00:15,360 for the onboard crew specifically scott 6 00:00:18,790 --> 00:00:16,880 scott kelly and mikhail kornienko who 7 00:00:20,470 --> 00:00:18,800 passed the midway point of their mission 8 00:00:22,150 --> 00:00:20,480 here to help talk about that is 9 00:00:23,830 --> 00:00:22,160 associate manager for the human research 10 00:00:25,269 --> 00:00:23,840 program dr john charles thanks so much 11 00:00:27,429 --> 00:00:25,279 for joining us delighted to be here 12 00:00:29,269 --> 00:00:27,439 thank you for the chance so let's set 13 00:00:31,189 --> 00:00:29,279 the stage again for 14 00:00:33,350 --> 00:00:31,199 why we even embarked on a one-year 15 00:00:34,790 --> 00:00:33,360 mission what were the goals of having a 16 00:00:37,990 --> 00:00:34,800 couple of crew members stay up there for 17 00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:38,000 twice the duration of the normal crew 18 00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:41,280 there were several goals one was to 19 00:00:45,830 --> 00:00:43,680 start getting into mars mindset mars 20 00:00:47,750 --> 00:00:45,840 missions will be probably two and a half 21 00:00:49,029 --> 00:00:47,760 years long we've got a lot of experience 22 00:00:51,189 --> 00:00:49,039 with six month missions on the 23 00:00:53,029 --> 00:00:51,199 international space station 24 00:00:55,029 --> 00:00:53,039 inevitably there's going to be somebody 25 00:00:56,389 --> 00:00:55,039 that says how about the gap between six 26 00:00:59,270 --> 00:00:56,399 months and two and a half years what are 27 00:01:01,750 --> 00:00:59,280 you doing about that and so a russian 28 00:01:03,590 --> 00:01:01,760 proposal was was submitted and it was 29 00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:03,600 accepted by the american side to do a 30 00:01:08,390 --> 00:01:05,760 one-year increment to start thinking 31 00:01:11,510 --> 00:01:08,400 about the aspects of a one-year mission 32 00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:11,520 or a mars mission but the the part that 33 00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:13,360 interests the human research program is 34 00:01:16,550 --> 00:01:14,960 really a chance to 35 00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:16,560 like i say see if we've done our 36 00:01:20,630 --> 00:01:18,080 homework correctly we've got lots of 37 00:01:22,070 --> 00:01:20,640 experience with six months and other 38 00:01:23,510 --> 00:01:22,080 shorter missions 39 00:01:25,590 --> 00:01:23,520 on the international space station on 40 00:01:27,749 --> 00:01:25,600 the russian space stations a whole long 41 00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:27,759 line of them on the american sky lab 42 00:01:30,630 --> 00:01:29,200 three-month missions 43 00:01:31,670 --> 00:01:30,640 and lots of experience in space flight 44 00:01:33,590 --> 00:01:31,680 in general 45 00:01:36,149 --> 00:01:33,600 we think we've learned how the human 46 00:01:38,149 --> 00:01:36,159 body responds to space flight so here's 47 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:38,159 a chance to test it and see whether or 48 00:01:41,429 --> 00:01:39,520 we can predict 49 00:01:42,950 --> 00:01:41,439 changes that might occur in a one year 50 00:01:43,749 --> 00:01:42,960 mission and how close our predictions 51 00:01:46,389 --> 00:01:43,759 are 52 00:01:48,310 --> 00:01:46,399 there shouldn't be that big a difference 53 00:01:50,149 --> 00:01:48,320 we think that the six month flights 54 00:01:51,510 --> 00:01:50,159 pretty much show us what's going to 55 00:01:53,350 --> 00:01:51,520 happen to the human body with a long 56 00:01:54,789 --> 00:01:53,360 space flight wouldn't it be nice to know 57 00:01:56,630 --> 00:01:54,799 if we're right before we start 58 00:01:59,270 --> 00:01:56,640 committing to longer flights so there's 59 00:02:01,510 --> 00:01:59,280 a chance to acquire data on human 60 00:02:04,069 --> 00:02:01,520 adaptation to long-duration space flight 61 00:02:05,830 --> 00:02:04,079 and also to verify our countermeasures 62 00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:05,840 those things that we have those 63 00:02:08,869 --> 00:02:08,080 techniques we've developed to allow us 64 00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:08,879 to 65 00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:12,560 confidence they can go forward with with 66 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:14,319 known medical 67 00:02:18,229 --> 00:02:16,480 changes in their bodies and see whether 68 00:02:20,869 --> 00:02:18,239 they really do work on longer missions 69 00:02:23,110 --> 00:02:20,879 so a good outcome for this mission will 70 00:02:25,030 --> 00:02:23,120 be no surprises 71 00:02:26,550 --> 00:02:25,040 so one of the major activities they've 72 00:02:29,350 --> 00:02:26,560 been doing this week is part of the 73 00:02:31,830 --> 00:02:29,360 fluids shift research they're even 74 00:02:33,110 --> 00:02:31,840 working on that uh today can you tell us 75 00:02:34,710 --> 00:02:33,120 a little bit about that i know part of 76 00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:34,720 that was to look at obviously the fluid 77 00:02:38,390 --> 00:02:36,720 shift changes and specifically changes 78 00:02:40,309 --> 00:02:38,400 to vision which has been observed in 79 00:02:43,030 --> 00:02:40,319 some crew members 80 00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:43,040 astronauts on previous space station 81 00:02:46,390 --> 00:02:44,720 missions 82 00:02:49,430 --> 00:02:46,400 not that far back in the past in the 83 00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:49,440 last seven or eight years have reported 84 00:02:53,110 --> 00:02:51,519 decreased visual acuity with time and 85 00:02:55,190 --> 00:02:53,120 flight 86 00:02:56,790 --> 00:02:55,200 we had always seen changes in visual 87 00:02:57,990 --> 00:02:56,800 acuity on shorter flights even on 88 00:03:00,390 --> 00:02:58,000 shuttle flights 89 00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:00,400 but it was always of a variable nature 90 00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:02,480 and never long lasting enough to really 91 00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:04,319 concern the flight surgeons in a 92 00:03:07,509 --> 00:03:05,760 significant way 93 00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:07,519 but about the the middle of the last 94 00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:09,360 decade or slightly there slightly 95 00:03:13,190 --> 00:03:11,200 thereafter some astronauts were 96 00:03:15,670 --> 00:03:13,200 reporting that they were 97 00:03:17,350 --> 00:03:15,680 losing a lot of their near visual field 98 00:03:19,589 --> 00:03:17,360 and unable to do things like read a 99 00:03:21,190 --> 00:03:19,599 checklist which is kind of a bummer when 100 00:03:22,229 --> 00:03:21,200 you're trying to fly a soyuz back to a 101 00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:22,239 landing 102 00:03:26,149 --> 00:03:23,760 so we became uh 103 00:03:28,630 --> 00:03:26,159 motivated to understand the problem the 104 00:03:30,789 --> 00:03:28,640 problem seems to be related to an actual 105 00:03:32,710 --> 00:03:30,799 change in the shape of the of the eye of 106 00:03:34,869 --> 00:03:32,720 the globe of the eye in space flight a 107 00:03:36,710 --> 00:03:34,879 flattening of the globe as if there is a 108 00:03:39,030 --> 00:03:36,720 force pushing against the back of the 109 00:03:40,949 --> 00:03:39,040 eye and making the eyes focal length 110 00:03:42,869 --> 00:03:40,959 shorter 111 00:03:44,470 --> 00:03:42,879 what what could be doing that well and 112 00:03:46,390 --> 00:03:44,480 that's based on direct measurements with 113 00:03:47,910 --> 00:03:46,400 ultrasound and pre and post-flight 114 00:03:51,030 --> 00:03:47,920 flight measurements with magnetic 115 00:03:52,149 --> 00:03:51,040 resonance imaging so it's it's pretty 116 00:03:54,229 --> 00:03:52,159 pretty 117 00:03:55,990 --> 00:03:54,239 real it's not it's not a it's not a 118 00:03:57,110 --> 00:03:56,000 hypothesis per se 119 00:03:59,589 --> 00:03:57,120 one of the things that happens in the 120 00:04:01,110 --> 00:03:59,599 human body is the body's body fluids 121 00:04:03,429 --> 00:04:01,120 distribute equally up and down the 122 00:04:05,670 --> 00:04:03,439 entire body which has the effect of 123 00:04:07,509 --> 00:04:05,680 being a net headword fluid shift hence 124 00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:07,519 the name fluid shifts 125 00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:09,760 if fluid shifts are implicated in the 126 00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:11,760 loss of visual acuity because of 127 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:13,680 pressure pushing on the back of the eye 128 00:04:16,870 --> 00:04:15,439 and presumably the fluids would sort of 129 00:04:18,870 --> 00:04:16,880 accumulate in the upper part of the body 130 00:04:20,629 --> 00:04:18,880 fill up the spaces in the head and then 131 00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:20,639 look for other places to go like along 132 00:04:23,590 --> 00:04:22,240 the optic nerve tracks 133 00:04:25,909 --> 00:04:23,600 wouldn't it be a good idea to see if we 134 00:04:28,390 --> 00:04:25,919 can reverse that with a device that uses 135 00:04:29,830 --> 00:04:28,400 lower body negative pressure well it 136 00:04:32,230 --> 00:04:29,840 just so happens the russians have one of 137 00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:32,240 those lbnp devices on the station it's 138 00:04:36,469 --> 00:04:34,479 called chibis it's part of their usual 139 00:04:38,070 --> 00:04:36,479 end of mission countermeasure 140 00:04:40,070 --> 00:04:38,080 so we have asked permission and actually 141 00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:40,080 have a joint study a joint u.s russian 142 00:04:43,990 --> 00:04:40,960 study 143 00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:44,000 to do chibus measurements on uh 144 00:04:47,670 --> 00:04:46,160 kornyenko and kelly three times in 145 00:04:49,590 --> 00:04:47,680 flight the first one was in june the 146 00:04:51,590 --> 00:04:49,600 second one was this week and then once 147 00:04:53,430 --> 00:04:51,600 more before landing to see if we can 148 00:04:54,790 --> 00:04:53,440 document with a change in the fluid 149 00:04:56,469 --> 00:04:54,800 distribution the change in the shape of 150 00:04:58,469 --> 00:04:56,479 the eye and a change in other parameters 151 00:05:00,710 --> 00:04:58,479 that indicate uh the fluid shifting in 152 00:05:03,430 --> 00:05:00,720 space so it's a very complex highly 153 00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:03,440 integrated uh probably the most complex 154 00:05:07,110 --> 00:05:05,199 biomedical investigation ever done on 155 00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:07,120 the station and i like to think it's one 156 00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:08,400 of the most complex of any 157 00:05:11,749 --> 00:05:10,320 investigations done in the station 158 00:05:13,430 --> 00:05:11,759 highly integrated between the us and 159 00:05:15,189 --> 00:05:13,440 russian sides and between the 160 00:05:17,189 --> 00:05:15,199 engineering and the scientific community 161 00:05:18,710 --> 00:05:17,199 so it's a a real challenge and our teams 162 00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:18,720 have been doing an excellent job on it 163 00:05:21,670 --> 00:05:20,080 so far 164 00:05:23,110 --> 00:05:21,680 in addition to the 165 00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:23,120 the changes in the vision and the 166 00:05:26,310 --> 00:05:24,560 physiological effects on the eye are 167 00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:26,320 there other physiological types of 168 00:05:28,629 --> 00:05:27,600 changes that you're looking for with the 169 00:05:30,310 --> 00:05:28,639 crew members 170 00:05:32,230 --> 00:05:30,320 well in fact there are i just heard a 171 00:05:34,230 --> 00:05:32,240 brief mention in your early report about 172 00:05:36,710 --> 00:05:34,240 sprint that's an exercise 173 00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:36,720 study to evaluate different ways more 174 00:05:39,830 --> 00:05:38,400 efficient ways to do exercise on 175 00:05:41,830 --> 00:05:39,840 astronauts so they don't spend quite so 176 00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:41,840 many hours a day treadmilling or 177 00:05:45,270 --> 00:05:43,120 exercising 178 00:05:47,670 --> 00:05:45,280 we have uh the usual set of of 179 00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:47,680 measurements of the blood components 180 00:05:51,110 --> 00:05:49,360 trying to undertrack the the changes 181 00:05:54,070 --> 00:05:51,120 that happen in the body's metabolic 182 00:05:55,270 --> 00:05:54,080 pathways in space and it should be noted 183 00:05:57,270 --> 00:05:55,280 that the studies that we're doing on the 184 00:05:58,629 --> 00:05:57,280 one-year mission are the same as we do 185 00:06:00,309 --> 00:05:58,639 on six-month missions they're not a 186 00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:00,319 separate set of investigations for one 187 00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:02,080 year because we're looking for 188 00:06:05,189 --> 00:06:03,680 differences between six months and one 189 00:06:06,550 --> 00:06:05,199 year and you want to do the same 190 00:06:08,150 --> 00:06:06,560 measurements and then see if the data 191 00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:08,160 are the same or different 192 00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:11,039 but there are a whole set of of 193 00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:13,440 physiological studies psychological 194 00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:15,680 studies and space human factors kind of 195 00:06:18,230 --> 00:06:17,120 studies how well do the astronauts 196 00:06:20,550 --> 00:06:18,240 relate to their environment the 197 00:06:22,629 --> 00:06:20,560 spacecraft to give future spacecraft 198 00:06:24,390 --> 00:06:22,639 designers insights into how how to 199 00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:24,400 design spacecraft more suitable for 200 00:06:27,749 --> 00:06:26,400 long-duration flights in the future 201 00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:27,759 and i think there was a number of tasks 202 00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:29,360 along those lines planned for scott 203 00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:31,120 today specifically 204 00:06:35,189 --> 00:06:33,600 what about cognitive performance how how 205 00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:35,199 do you guys monitor monitor that for 206 00:06:38,230 --> 00:06:36,880 crew members we're of course very 207 00:06:41,189 --> 00:06:38,240 concerned and very interested in the 208 00:06:44,230 --> 00:06:41,199 astronauts cognition uh astronauts are 209 00:06:46,390 --> 00:06:44,240 are selected and flown because they have 210 00:06:48,390 --> 00:06:46,400 substantial brains and those brains have 211 00:06:51,350 --> 00:06:48,400 to interact with the environment so we 212 00:06:54,469 --> 00:06:51,360 are doing some very simple testing of 213 00:06:56,309 --> 00:06:54,479 of cognitive function essentially a a 214 00:06:57,110 --> 00:06:56,319 reaction time test which tells us a lot 215 00:06:58,710 --> 00:06:57,120 about 216 00:07:00,710 --> 00:06:58,720 cognitive function at the very basal 217 00:07:02,390 --> 00:07:00,720 level and some other studies which are 218 00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:02,400 largely pre and post-flight with some 219 00:07:07,749 --> 00:07:05,360 in-flight sampling in-flight of 220 00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:07,759 questionnaires and testing that look at 221 00:07:12,870 --> 00:07:10,240 changes in the actual structure of the 222 00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:12,880 brain using mri and we'll do those who 223 00:07:15,990 --> 00:07:14,400 can't do an mri in flight but we can do 224 00:07:17,830 --> 00:07:16,000 it pre-flight and post-flight and do the 225 00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:17,840 same kind of psychological tests in 226 00:07:22,150 --> 00:07:19,360 flight as we do pre and post-flight to 227 00:07:23,830 --> 00:07:22,160 see if we can correlate changes and the 228 00:07:25,749 --> 00:07:23,840 function on the test with changes in the 229 00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:25,759 structure in the brain it's an exciting 230 00:07:30,070 --> 00:07:28,560 it's exciting and it's the first time 231 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:30,080 you know medical technology has allowed 232 00:07:35,029 --> 00:07:31,919 us to do this kind of really 233 00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:35,039 invasive non-invasive kind of work 234 00:07:38,870 --> 00:07:37,039 there was another really unique um 235 00:07:41,189 --> 00:07:38,880 opportunity with this crew in particular 236 00:07:42,790 --> 00:07:41,199 scott kelly being a twin so there's been 237 00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:42,800 a lot of talk about the twin studies in 238 00:07:46,230 --> 00:07:44,080 particular can you tell us how that's 239 00:07:47,909 --> 00:07:46,240 going the twin study is going very well 240 00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:47,919 in this case we 241 00:07:50,710 --> 00:07:48,960 actually 242 00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:50,720 had an experiment suggested by the 243 00:07:53,830 --> 00:07:52,160 astronauts that doesn't happen very 244 00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:53,840 often a biomedical experiment suggested 245 00:07:57,749 --> 00:07:56,319 by the astronauts scott and mark 246 00:07:59,430 --> 00:07:57,759 actually sort of came up with the idea 247 00:08:01,430 --> 00:07:59,440 themselves and we jumped on it as a 248 00:08:03,589 --> 00:08:01,440 chance to really take advantage of a 249 00:08:04,869 --> 00:08:03,599 once in a lifetime not just once in a 250 00:08:06,469 --> 00:08:04,879 career but a once in a lifetime 251 00:08:07,749 --> 00:08:06,479 opportunity to make coordinated 252 00:08:09,909 --> 00:08:07,759 measurements on 253 00:08:12,070 --> 00:08:09,919 identical twins one in flight and one on 254 00:08:14,710 --> 00:08:12,080 the ground scott or mark continues to 255 00:08:16,070 --> 00:08:14,720 live the free free range life in tucson 256 00:08:17,589 --> 00:08:16,080 he's not living in a space station 257 00:08:19,270 --> 00:08:17,599 mock-up he's not eating space station 258 00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:19,280 food he's not exercising on scott's 259 00:08:23,189 --> 00:08:21,520 schedule but he does visit with us 260 00:08:25,990 --> 00:08:23,199 periodically and allow us to collect 261 00:08:27,589 --> 00:08:26,000 body fluid samples and do other studies 262 00:08:29,270 --> 00:08:27,599 including the chiba study he is doing 263 00:08:31,189 --> 00:08:29,280 the the lower body negative pressure 264 00:08:33,269 --> 00:08:31,199 study himself as a comparison with his 265 00:08:34,550 --> 00:08:33,279 brother's function in flight he's also 266 00:08:36,630 --> 00:08:34,560 doing the cognition study and other 267 00:08:37,750 --> 00:08:36,640 studies like that so we've just 268 00:08:40,149 --> 00:08:37,760 collected 269 00:08:43,269 --> 00:08:40,159 saliva samples last week and next week 270 00:08:45,910 --> 00:08:43,279 we'll be doing the full panoply of of 271 00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:45,920 sample collection blood and urine and 272 00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:48,080 yes even fecal samples collected next 273 00:08:52,710 --> 00:08:50,640 week as well as a full suite of 274 00:08:55,030 --> 00:08:52,720 psychological psychological tests on 275 00:08:56,710 --> 00:08:55,040 scott and then in early october mark 276 00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:56,720 will come to houston and do the same 277 00:09:00,470 --> 00:08:58,800 studies for us again and then they will 278 00:09:01,829 --> 00:09:00,480 they will both continue except for the 279 00:09:04,070 --> 00:09:01,839 chippets part they'll both continue in 280 00:09:05,430 --> 00:09:04,080 post flight the post flight parade for 281 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:05,440 six months and maybe even longer to 282 00:09:09,990 --> 00:09:07,279 allow us to collect data on scott as he 283 00:09:13,670 --> 00:09:10,000 re-adapts and on mark as an example of 284 00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,230 so one final question we've had a number 285 00:09:21,590 --> 00:09:18,880 of individuals just a few who've stayed 286 00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:21,600 up there longer but on tuesday that was 287 00:09:26,470 --> 00:09:23,920 the midway point for scott and mikhail 288 00:09:29,030 --> 00:09:26,480 and now they're embarking on a new you 289 00:09:30,790 --> 00:09:29,040 know longer mission than typical what 290 00:09:31,509 --> 00:09:30,800 are the types of psychological aspects 291 00:09:33,110 --> 00:09:31,519 that 292 00:09:35,509 --> 00:09:33,120 you anticipate they'll be facing as they 293 00:09:37,990 --> 00:09:35,519 go into the second phase 294 00:09:39,990 --> 00:09:38,000 scott and mikhail are both extremely 295 00:09:42,630 --> 00:09:40,000 well grounded no pun intended 296 00:09:43,990 --> 00:09:42,640 individuals in space i expect we're 297 00:09:45,509 --> 00:09:44,000 going to see more of the same i think 298 00:09:47,190 --> 00:09:45,519 they're highly motivated extremely 299 00:09:49,430 --> 00:09:47,200 highly motivated they're both volunteers 300 00:09:50,710 --> 00:09:49,440 for this mission they'll do the very 301 00:09:53,190 --> 00:09:50,720 best anybody can do under these 302 00:09:54,870 --> 00:09:53,200 circumstances i think they have 303 00:09:56,470 --> 00:09:54,880 considerable support from the ground 304 00:09:58,150 --> 00:09:56,480 from from their crewmates from their 305 00:10:00,470 --> 00:09:58,160 family and friends from people here in 306 00:10:02,230 --> 00:10:00,480 mission control and others and the in 307 00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:02,240 the the infrastructure supporting this 308 00:10:04,389 --> 00:10:03,279 mission 309 00:10:06,550 --> 00:10:04,399 i think 310 00:10:08,949 --> 00:10:06,560 i would bet they're not going to have 311 00:10:10,230 --> 00:10:08,959 real psychological issues but one of the 312 00:10:11,990 --> 00:10:10,240 things we're doing in this extended 313 00:10:14,069 --> 00:10:12,000 mission is to see whether we can detect 314 00:10:15,910 --> 00:10:14,079 even subtle changes that might be 315 00:10:17,509 --> 00:10:15,920 harbingers of changes on other 316 00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:17,519 astronauts on even more challenging 317 00:10:21,430 --> 00:10:19,120 missions in the future so we'll continue 318 00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:21,440 to look at them very closely but i'll be 319 00:10:24,470 --> 00:10:23,360 surprised if we see anything that that's 320 00:10:27,350 --> 00:10:24,480 really 321 00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:27,360 warrants a continued investigation 322 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:29,200 well thank you so much there's a lot of 323 00:10:32,470 --> 00:10:31,120 exciting science going on it's i can 324 00:10:35,030 --> 00:10:32,480 hear the excitement in your voice so we 325 00:10:36,870 --> 00:10:35,040 look forward to following along and 326 00:10:38,630 --> 00:10:36,880 as you said supporting them so thank you 327 00:10:40,630 --> 00:10:38,640 again for joining us dr john charles
