Description

Imagine becoming an astronaut, and after traveling back from space, making it your life’s work to study and solve the health problems posed by deep space travel. Dr. Jay Buckey is doing just that in the Space Medicine Innovations Laboratory at Dartmouth and a professor in both the medical school and engineering college at Dartmouth.   In this episode we talk about deep space radiation, using virtual reality for improving mental health, custom atmospheres, and autonomous diagnosing tools.

Space provides the ultimate environment. There's no air, freezing temperatures, and constant bombardment of radiation. It's no wonder that a cow would have a tough time surviving out there! After teaching several courses on Space Medicine, Nick and Dominic are ready to further explore the fields of astrobiology and bioastronautics. Join us as we discuss the extremes of physics and physiology.
