Trama

This book brings together in-depth information on a wide array of bio-engineering topics and their application to enhance human health, performance, comfort, and survival in extreme environments. Contributions from biomedical engineering, information systems, medicine and physiology, and medical engineering are presented in relation to a broad range of harsh and extreme environmental scenarios, including underwater, terrestrial (both natural and man-made), and space travel. Physicians, engineers, and scientists, as well as researchers and graduate students, will find the book to be an invaluable resource.
  • Details effects of extreme environments on human physiology;
  • Presents human-environment interaction in different scenarios;
  • Overview of engineering challenges and problems in extreme environments.

Autore

Tobias Cibis is a scientific researcher at the Joint Research Centre in AI for Health and Wellness at the University of Technology Sydney and Ontario Tech University. His research comprises mathematical modeling, simulations, and machine learning in medicine and life sciences, focusing on mathematical physiology and extreme environmental exposure of scuba divers and astronauts. He previously performed research on engineering and medicine in extreme environments, with a focus on diving and hyperbaric medicine, at the Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen and the University of Sydney, and has completed diving and hyperbaric medical education with the Australian and New Zealand Hyperbaric Medicine Group at the Department of Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine of the Prince of Wales Clinical School. He is a member of the IEEE Life Sciences Technical Committee, co-chairs their focus group on “Extreme Environments" and is Editor-In-Chief of the IEEE Life Sciences Newsletter.

Carolyn McGregor, AM, Ph.D. is the Research Chair in Artificial Intelligence for Health and Wellness and a two-time Canada Research Chair in Health Informatics at Ontario Tech University. She is the founding co-Director of the Joint Research Centre in Artificial Intelligence for Health and Wellness between Ontario Tech University and the University of Technology, Sydney. Professor McGregor AM has led pioneering research in Big Data analytics, stream computing, artificial intelligence, deep learning, the Internet of Things, temporal data mining, cloud computing, and edge computing. She now progresses this research within the context of critical care medicine, astronaut health along with firefighter and tactical officer resilience assessment and development. She is the inventor and lead on two international award-winning AI-driven Big Data analytics platforms for health and wellness, Artemis and Athena. She was awarded membership in the Order of Australia (AM) in2014 for her significant service to science and innovation through health care information systems. She is the past Chair of the Life Sciences Technical Committee, co-chairs their focus group on “Extreme Environments" and is the Vice President of Member and Student Activities of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.
