SUMMARY:NASA Tech Talks: Exercise Physiology and Countermeasures for Human Spaceflight
DESCRIPTION:We want HOU! Join us to discover NASA’s toughest tech challenges and apply your skills and expertise to solve them. \nThis month’s topic is: Exercise Physiology and Countermeasures for Human Spaceflight \nDr. Brian Prejean will discuss how NASA protects astronaut health and performance by understanding the mechanisms and consequences of spaceflight deconditioning in order to characterize mission risk as well as to optimize exercise countermeasure systems and interventions.  He will describe how we prepare astronauts for flight and what we do to rehab/recondition astronauts postflight\, as well as countermeasures taken during ISS missions.  He will also discuss the challenges we will face as part of the Artemis Program on Orion\, the Gateway Space Station\, and the Lunar Surface\, as well as the steps we are taking to deal with those challenges. \nAbout the Speakers:\nDr. Prejean is a Human Performance Scientist on KBR’s Human Health and Performance Contract in the Johnson Space Center’s Human Physiology\, Performance\, Protection\, and Operations (H-3PO) laboratory and leads the Exercise Physiology and Countermeasures (EPC) technical area within the lab. Brian holds a B.S. in Exercise Physiology from Texas A&M University\, and a M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Arlington in Exercise Physiology and Kinesiology\, respectively with a research focus in Applied Biomechanics\, and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. He also currently serves as a Risk Custodian for the muscle and aerobic deconditioning risks carried by NASA’s Human Systems Risk Board and is the Exercise Discipline Scientist for NASA’s Human Research Program \nThe EPC team supports NASA’s human health and performance objectives for spaceflight in three primary areas: technology development\, applied research\, and exercise subject matter expert support to human spaceflight program operations. Current efforts within the lab include the evaluation and certification of exercise systems designated for Artemis Lunar exploration missions; development of exercise system requirements for the Lunar pressurized rover vehicle; spaceflight and terrestrial research on the dose-response relationship of both spaceflight exposure as well as exercise interventions;  development and implementation of standardized in-flight health and performance assessments; development of novel countermeasure technologies and strategies for optimizing astronaut health and performance outcomes. \nMontgomery B. Goforth has more than 40 years of experience as both Engineer and Manager in a variety of highly technical space and defense-related efforts.  After working for a small defense contractor specializing in anti-submarine warfare\, he joined NASA’s Johnson Space Center in 1990.  He has held leadership positions in multiple JSC Directorates and Program Offices. In his current role as Assistant Director of the JSC Engineering Directorate\, he has established a framework to better focus Engineering’s efforts towards Human Spaceflight technology and systems development consistent with JSC and Agency goals for exploration. He has used this framework to guide Engineering’s internal investments and external partnerships supporting Lunar and Mars Exploration. Mr. Goforth was born in East Texas\, raised in Southern California and Arizona\, and graduated from Rice University (BSME 1982\, MSME 1987). \n\n\nNASA Tech Talks topics include dual-use (space/terrestrial) technologies and focus areas in:\n\n\n\nAvionics / Communication / Sensors\nRadio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for ultra-long-lived wireless sensors\nPower Storage and Distribution\nAutonomous & Robotics Systems\nExtra-Vehicular Activity (EVA) Systems\nVirtual/Augmented Reality in Human Spaceflight Training & Execution\nHuman Health & Performance / Human Systems Research\nNASA Intellectual Property suitable for commercialization by small/start-up companies\nOrion’s parachutes and risk identification and mitigation strategies\nLeveraging Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for ultra-long-lived wireless sensors
