Description
Extreme Physiology & Medicine focuses on physiological responses and adaptations to extreme environmental conditions and the optimization of human performance in those settings. This journal welcomes research on human performance in the most challenging environments, including high altitude, deep sea, outer space, and extreme temperatures. By exploring the limits of human physiological capacity, the journal seeks to advance our understanding of human health and resilience.
The journal covers a wide array of topics, from the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying adaptation to extreme environments to the development of novel strategies for preventing and treating altitude sickness, decompression sickness, and other environmental illnesses. It also explores ethical and medical aspects related to performance enhancement.
Extreme Physiology & Medicine aims to translate research findings into practical applications for individuals working and living in extreme environments. It fosters collaboration among physiologists, physicians, engineers, and other professionals interested in pushing the boundaries of human performance and health. The journal is committed to disseminating high-quality research that can improve the safety and well-being of those who venture into the most challenging environments on Earth and beyond.
