During this orbit we look ahead to AsMA 2023 in New Orleans with special guest Daniel Kaganov!

During Orbit 12 I chat with Dr. Michael Pohlen, MD about Space Radiology!

During this orbit we gained a new space-nerd-friend Vienna (@Vistronaut), an Australian medical student, to help us answer the question of whether muscle or bone presents a more pressing challenge for human spaceflight! Astronauts lose significant muscle bulk and bone mass during stays in microgravity but which is more important in terms of astronaut health and can a new device to help us jump in space be a novel solution (@Perform_Science)?

During this orbit I worked with my space-nerd-friend Ryan on how we can make space for everyone! Disability presents unique questions to the spaceflight community especially with routine civilian-spaceflight on the horizon. So what are some medical considerations for these "parastronauts" and could an earthly disability actually be of benefit during space travel?

During this episode, I was joined by my space-nerd friends Ryan and Vlad to discuss everything under the sun about the stuff that comes from the sun, radiation! Radiation presents perhaps the most significant risk to astronauts trying to live in space as well on the Moon and Mars. So what types of radiation will be encountered, what are some of the medical consequences, and what role could precision medicine play?

Welcome to let's talk space medicine, i'm Kyle Anderson your medical-student slash space-nerd host. For your listening entertainment I gather my other medically inclined space-nerd friends to just chill and talk to each other sometimes!  Its been 6 months since I started the podcast, so I decided it was time to check in with my co-hosts and see how we are doing, and where we want to go!
