It was held in Baltimore, Maryland in 1984; 669 were in attendance and 310 abstracts were presented as free papers and posters. The 2nd International Conference was held four years later in Boston, Massachusetts under the sponsorship of the American Society for Head and Neck Surgery. It grew to 414 abstracts accepted for presentation and 983 in attendance. The 3rd International Conference on Head and Neck Cancer was held in San Francisco, California in 1992 under the sponsorship of both the American Society for Head and Neck Surgery and the Society of Head and Neck Surgeons. The conference grew to 1,501 in total attendance: the number of proffered papers and poster presentations reached 582. The 4th International Conference was held in Toronto, Canada in 1996 where 1,664 attended from 51 countries, and 787 abstracts were accepted for presentation. The 5th International Conference was held in San Francisco, California in 2000 where a record-breaking 2,275 attended, and 791 abstracts were accepted for presentation. This meeting was sponsored by the recently merged Head and Neck societies. The new society, the American Head and Neck Society, is the single largest society dedicated to head and neck oncology in North America. The 6th International Conference was held in Washington, DC in 2004 with 1,720 attendees and 875 abstracts accepted for presentation. The 7th International Conference was held once again in San Francisco, California in 2008 where 1,996 attended from 65 countries and 1,159 abstracts were accepted for presentation. The 8th International Conference was held Toronto, Canada in 2012 where 1,755 attended from 64 countries and 1,339 abstracts were accepted for oral and poster presentation.

    Isolated and Confined Environments

    17 Isolated and Confined Environments Carole Tafforin Ethospace, Toulouse, France Characteristics of space analogue environments with regard to human per- formance concern the crew adaptation in a socio-psychological context and in a temporal dynamics. Isolation, confinement and time are major features on Earth to reproduce an extra-terrestrial environment for manned mission simulations. In the current space missions (low Earth orbit, LEO) and in the perspective of interplanetary missions (near-Earth asteroid, Moon, Mars), men and women will have to adapt to social constraints (crew size, multinationality, mixed-gender) and spatial restrictions (volume, multi-chambers, life-support) on short-term, medium-term and long-term durations. The crewmembers also will have to perform intra-vehicular activities (IVA)and extra-vehicular activ- ities (EVA). For training, preventing and optimizing such tasks, simulations of living and working together in isolated and confined environments, and simulations of operating with a space suit on geological surfaces are the new requirements. During the two decades (1991–2011), space simulators (confinement) and analogue settings (isolation) were adequately developed on Earth with the ultimate goal of walking on Mars. Time periods extended up to 500 days. Space analogue environments are located worldwide (Canada, United States, Russia, Europe, Antarctica and Arctic). Mission durations in space analogue environments cover days, weeks and years. Isolation and confinement facilities implemented for such simulations are listed in Table 17.1. Over a 7-day duration, the Canadian Astronaut Program Space Unit Life Simulation (CAPSULS) was an Earth-based initiative that simulated a typical space shuttle or space station mission [1]. CAPSULS provided the Canadian astronaut participants with space mission training.

    Habitability Studies and Full Scale Simulation Research: Preliminary Themes Following HISEAS Mission IV

    47th International Conference on Environmental Systems ICES-2017-138 16-20 July 2017, Charleston, South Carolina Habitability Studies and Full Scale Simulation Research: Preliminary themes following HISEAS mission IV Sandra Häuplik-Meusburger1 Vienna University of Technology, space-craft Architektur, Vienna, Austria Kim Binsted2 University of Hawai'i at Manoa, HI-SEAS Tristan Bassingthwaighte3 University of Hawai'i at Manoa, HI-SEAS IV Georgi Petrov4 Synthesis The ‘Hawai'i Space Exploration Analog and Simulation’ (HI-SEAS) is a long duration Mars exploration analogue study run by the University of Hawaii at Manoa, funded by NASA. The first mission started in 2013. HI-SEAS mission IV included six crew-members, three male and three female. The mission began on 28 August 2015 and was scheduled to run for a year. HI-SEAS V began on January 19th, 2017 and is scheduled for 8 months. Research conducted during the missions includes research into food preparation and preferences, behavior, crew dynamics, group performance and other relevant issues for future missions to Mars and beyond, as well as our study on habitability. This paper introduces the continuing ‘HI-SEAS Habitability Study’, which systematically investigates the relationship between the built environment (habitat) and its inhabitants. The term habitability describes the physical suitability and subjective value of a built habitat for its inhabitants within a specific environment. Along with human factors, habitability is critical for the design of an inhabited confined and isolated environment and thus the well-being of the inhabitants. The study uses a mix of methodologies for data collection, including monthly questionnaires during the mission and post mission interviews.

    "Aquarius" Undersea Habitat As an Analog for Long- Duration Space Flight

    https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20110011365 2019-08-30T15:38:42+00:00Z Source of Acquisiti on NASA Jolmson Space Center The NEEMO Project: A Report on how NASA Utilizes the "Aquarius" Undersea Habitat as an Analog for Long- Duration Space Flight. Bill ToddlUnited Space Alliance Marc Reagan/NASA NEEMO Project Leads Spaceflight Training, NASAJJSC October, 2003 Abstract NEEMO is the NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations, a cooperative project between NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NEEMO was created and is managed by the Mission Operations Directorate at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. On the NOAA side, the National Undersea Research Center (NURC) in Key Largo, FL, with the help of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, manages and operates the Aquarius Program. NEEMO was developed by astronaut training specialists to utilize an undersea research habitat as a multi-objective mission analog for long-duration space flight. Each mission was designed to expose astronauts to extreme environments for training purposes and to research crew behavior, habitability, and space analog life sciences. All of this was done much in the model of a space mission utilizing specific crew procedures, mission rules and timelines. Objectives of the missions were very diverse and contained many of the typical space mission type activities such as EV As (also known as extra vehicular activities), in-habitat science and research, and educational, public outreach, and media events. Five missions, dubbed NEEMO 1-5, were conducted between October 2001 and July 2003, the longest of which (NEEMO 5) lasted 14 days.
