Results of Space Experiments in Physiology and Medicine and Informal Briefings by the F-16 Medical Working Group, Conference Proceedings, Aerospace Medical Panel Symposium Held at Istanbul, Turkey on 25-27 September 1984

Abstract

Thirteen invited scientific papers resulting form recent French- Soviet Salyut 7, Shuttle and NASA/ESA Spacelab-1 mission were presented at the Aerospace Medical Panel's 41st Symposium of 'Results of Space Experiments in Physiology and Medicine' held in Istanbul, Turkey 25-26 September 1984. An introductory paper reporting on the experience of a science astronaut on the Spacelab-1 mission was followed by five reports on vestibular and sensori-motor responses to microgravity, four papers on cardiovscular responses, and three papers covering sleep, immunological and radiobiological responses. A one-half day informal briefing session was held as the same site on 27 September 1984 covering selection procedures, centrifuge operations and training, physical training and G tolerance, and several aeromedical problems associated with F-16 fighter aircraft operations. Originator-supplied keywords include: Aerospace medicine, Spacecraft environment, Weightlessness, Physiology.
