Lecture Title: | “Research Opportunities in Human Space Exploration” | |
The space environment presents a unique paradigm that challenges our understanding of human physiology. A broad range of research opportunities exist, including basic mechanism oriented science as well as operations-focused technology and countermeasure development. The U.S. has long been a leader among space-faring nations in addressing fundamental biomedical challenges associated with spaceflight, and now stands poised to forge new partnerships in research with the exciting potential to transcend national borders. | ||
We encourage students, faculty and staff to attend the CSM elective lecture series “Topics in Human Space Exploration and Medicine.” Please contact me if you need additional information about this presentation. | ||
