Welcome to Today In Space podcast - and another People of Space segment. This week we have an expert in space medicine & health. As we enter an age where more and more humans go into space, to the moon, mars, and beyond - and even just in zero g - a better understanding about the wide spectrum of humans in space environments is needed.
And that's why I'm excited to introduce Dr Saralyn Mark expert in space medicine, women's health, endocrinology, and geriatrics. As President and CEO of SolaMed Solutions, LLC and its space subsidiary, she advises organizations and agencies including NASA, HHS, and the White House on health and space-related policies and programs. Dr. Mark is also President of iGIANT®, the only nonprofit accelerating gendered innovation/precision design in the world.
Join us as we dive into Space Health with Dr. Mark and talk about the past, present, and future of human health & spaceflight!
