PED 4805 Military Medicine and Space
In the not too distant future, man will explore space beyond the confines of Earth and our Moon. Space is our next frontier and as military medical leaders, we must prepare to support this voyage. During this 4-wk course, students will consider the effects of space travel on military mission planning to include threats, operations, logistics, and medical support. Experts from many fields of medicine will deliver lectures and lead small group discussions. These multidisciplinary and multimedia discussions will culminate in a team presentation and contribute to our future mission amongst the stars
