About The Position
This physician position will support the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) and Environmental Physiology Lab (EEPL) at NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC). The lab conducts applied research, provides programmatic operational support, and develops technology to characterize the human health and performance risks during suited activities (e.g., extravehicular activity, EVA) to mitigate those risks. This position would focus on pre-breathe protocols to mitigate the risk of decompression sickness, evaluation of exposure to carbon dioxide in suited environments, characterization of the physiological effects of performing EVAs, and the development of computational models and technologies to aid in future autonomous EVAs. This position would also serve as a Pulmonary/Critical Care and Hyperbaric Medicine subject matter expert (SME).
