VIDEO | Polar Operations: Exploring Health Care in Extreme Environments

This month’s installment of the Thought Leader Series delves into Earth’s extremes with “Polar Operations: Exploring Health Care in Extreme Environments,” presented by UTMB Health.

This recording is from a special presentation we hosted on Thursday, May 23 and features a distinguished panel of UTMB experts in polar medical operations, aerospace medicine and human physiology. Our panelists discussed their experiences providing medical care in the world’s most extreme environments and explored the implications of Earth’s weather for life in space.

Join us to discover their experience managing healthcare challenges in harsh conditions and the invaluable lessons they offer for the future of human spaceflight.
