As Crew-10 prepares to return tomorrow, a look back at Crew-11’s launch prep with UTMB-trained flight surgeons Drs. Joseph Dervay & Craig Kutz. Proud to support human spaceflight every step of the way.

Crew-10 is home. In this photo, NASA Flight Surgeon Dr. Moriah Thompson (UTMB RAM ’19, far left) stands ready to support Anne McClain after Dragon egress on the recovery ship. Early care targets vestibular re-adaptation, hemodynamics, orthostasis, and coordination.

Fatal accident risk on U.S. airlines ≈ 1 in 200,000—and falling. This seminar covers: • FAA/NTSB safety data • General vs. commercial aviation risk • Pilot medical certification & disqualifying conditions 📺 youtu.be/yFXF8bDHJlU

Alumni highlight for Ann Tsung, MD, MPH (RAM ’20). She co-authored a JAMA Ophthalmology study identifying predictors of SANS in repeat ISS flyers. Read the abstract ⤵️ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41066117/

Training environments shape careers. Dr. Tsung’s work shows how rigorous preparation carries into meaningful research after residency. Well done!

In Singapore today, Dr. Leigh Speicher was inducted as an Academician of IAASM during the 71st International Congress of Aviation and Space Medicine. Alum of our combined IM/Aerospace Medicine residency (2008–2012). Congratulations, Dr. Speicher. IAASM ICASM Intl Academy of Aviation and Space Med UTMB Health

UTMB Aerospace Medicine supported Wings Over Houston at Ellington Field earlier this month. Team highlights: staffed the South Medical Tent, led volunteer medical briefings, and coordinated coverage posts to keep attendees safe. Thanks to all volunteers and partners!

🆕 Another ICASM Singapore update. First-year resident Dr. Sam Stephenson presented a poster on validating a model to predict G-tolerance using a second participant. Collaboration with alum Dr. Karen Ong, flight surgeon at Virgin Galactic. Manuscript planned for February. 🚀
