S3 EP1: A Spoonful of Stardust Helps Medicine Go...Up

In this exciting episode we got a clinician's perspective on the cutting research in Space Medicine! Dr. Michael Gallagher is the President and CEO of Association of Spaceflight Professionals Inc., an organization developing early-stage human-in-the-loop space experiments and technologies.  He previously practiced family and dive medicine at the Canadian Forces Base in Esquimalt, British Columbia. He now practices Medicine in British Columbia and sometimes works with patients in rural communities in Alberta and Canada’s north. In April 2010, he completed a Canadian Space Agency-sponsored aerospace medicine elective at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center.  He became a finalist for the Aerospace Medical Association’s Jeff Myers Young Investigator Award for preliminary investigations into lower body negative pressure as a possible countermeasure for bone loss in space.
