Since December 2016 the DLR Institute of Aerospace Medicine together with the DLR Space Administration organizes the annual Human Physiology Workshop at :envihab, the research facility of the Institute of Aerospace Medicine. In short talks the work in the physiological fields of aerospace medicine, extreme environments, exercise and clinical physiology is presented and discussed. A creative and friendly atmosphere allows the scientists to present their work and to get a direct feedback.
We are pleased to welcome you to the 3rd German Human Physiology Workshop 2018. The workshop shall provide a forum for researchers at all stages (student to professor) to meet and discuss their latest findings in human physiological research and space research and give room for mutual exchange and benefit between space and non-space scientists.
Targeted presenters: Scientists at PhD or early post-doc level Targeted presentations: New results from all areas of human physiology Targeted audience: From student to professor, all people interested in human physiology; in particular researching physicians, exercise scientists and physiotherapists
Venue: envihab’s module 8, at DLR, 51147-Cologne, Linder Höhe 1, Germany
Abstract submission: by 1st of October 2018 by email to humanphysiologie-ws@dlr.de Instructions for Abstracts: 1 PDF-page (Template) Admission Fee: None Registration: Human Physiology Workshop 2018
