INTERNATIONAL SPACE MEDICINE SUMMIT 2011 May 19–22, 2011 • James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy • Rice University INTERNATIONAL SPACE MEDICINE SUMMIT 2011 May 19–22, 2011 • James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy • Rice University About the Event International Space Medicine Summit 2011 The International Space Medicine Summit 2011 (ISMS 2011) will bring together leading physicians, space biomedical scientists, engineers, astronauts, cosmonauts, educators and space agency representatives from spacefaring nations for high-level discussions about research to prevent and/or mitigate the medical, psychological and biomedical challenges of long-duration spaceflight. As the world celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first human spaceflights, ISMS 2011 seeks to stimulate and facilitate multinational collaborations that maximize research on the International Space Station to ensure the well-being of astronauts and cosmonauts on low-Earth orbit missions, as well as future expeditions beyond the Earth’s gravitational force. ISMS 2011 will build upon the success of the four previous summits by focusing on the identification of critical research priorities for the space station and by creating the operational agreements needed to establish successful, fully integrated, multinational research and exploration partnerships for the benefit of spacefarers and all of humanity. ISMS 2011 is committed to facilitating increased communication and cooperation among nations. Sharing and applying the lessons learned from long-duration human spaceflight and analog environments, and implementing the resulting advances in technology and human knowledge, will protect future space travelers and enhance life on Earth. Organizing Partners James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy, Rice University The mission of the Baker Institute is to help bridge the gap between the theory and practice of public policy by drawing together experts from academia, government, media, business and nongovernmental organizations. By involving policymakers and scholars, as well as students (tomorrow’s policymakers and scholars), the institute seeks to improve the debate on selected public policy issues and to make a difference in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policy, both domestic and international. The Baker Institute is an integral part of Rice University, one of the nation’s most distinguished institutions of higher education. The efforts of Baker Institute fellows and affiliated Rice faculty focus on several ongoing research projects, details of which can be found on the institute’s website, http://bakerinstitute.org. Baylor College of Medicine Baylor College of Medicine is committed to being a national leader in advancing human health through the integration of patient care, research, education and community service. The college pursues this mission by promoting patient care of the highest standard, advancing basic and clinical biomedical research, sustaining educational excellence, and fostering public awareness of health and the prevention of disease. Since its founding in 1900, Baylor has grown into an internationally respected medical and research institution. Baylor offers patient care services through several of its Texas Medical Center affiliate hospitals and clinics, with more than 152,000 inpatient visits and 2.2 million outpatient visits annually. The college has more than 70 research and patient-care centers and units. More information can be found on the school’s website, http://www.bcm.edu.
