Space nerds, has SpaceX talked publicly at all about the en-route obstacles to a Mars mission (radiation, deconditioning, closed-loop life support) and how it plans to address them? I can find stuff about launch and landing but not the middle part that is the actual dealbreaker.

Has it been tried by SpaceX though? If they can’t manage baseline life support the other problems are immaterial.
