To date, research on the International Space Station (ISS) has helped answer scientific questions ranging from 'How do fluids flow in space?' to 'What are the origins of the universe?', and the science and technology returns have grown at a steady pace. The on-orbit international crew have been busier than ever performing research and technology development activities for use on Earth and in space. As of October 1, 2016, more than 2000 investigations were conducted across the international partnership resulting in more than 1900 publications in journals, conferences, and other gray literature (such as magazines, DVDs, and patents). This report is intended to provide an overall highlight of research results published from October 1, 2015 to October 1, 2016 from investigations operated on the ISS. These results represent the research of approximately 500 scientists around the world for investigations sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the Roscosmos State Corporation for Space Activities (Roscosmos), the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the European Space Agency (ESA), and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA). Like a typical laboratory on Earth, the logistics of the ISS allows for many investigations to be carried forward over several ISS crew expeditions, enabling repeated experimentation and data collection important for answering critical research questions. Impacts of these results reach beyond the field of space research into traditional areas of science in multidisciplinary ways.
