Lecture Title: | "Biomedical Solutions Developed for Space Improve Healthcare on Earth" | |
The space environment presents a unique paradigm that challenges our understanding of human physiology and our capability to administer healthcare in an extreme and resource limited environment. Medical procedures and technologies must meet a high bar and be robust and largely minimally invasive. Advances made for space have already resulted in innovative ways of practicing medicine that are transforming clinical care here on Earth. | ||
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. | ||
