Welcome to our February newsletter!
 
Yes, we know it's a bit early for our SMLS newsletter, but we just had to get all this helpful information out to you before the start of March. 

In February our committee has been pretty busy preparing multiple abstracts in different SMLS topics for the International Aeronautical Congress in Baku this autumn. Once the abstracts are accepted, we will be making an announcement for writing collaboration projects, which will be open to all SMLS members to participate in. So, please keep an eye out for more info on this in the upcoming months.

We are also planning to hold HealthInSpace webinars as a regular monthly event starting from March. The first webinar for this spring is titled “Astronaut medical care prior and post space missions”. Stay tuned for further updates on this!

As always, we found a number of Events and Opportunities, that we would love to share with YOU, our  dear SMLS enthusiasts, so keep scrolling for more.

Have a great day!

Yours Sincerely
SMLS Team
