The value of a spaceflight clinical decision support system for earth-independent medical operations.

As NASA prepares for crewed lunar missions over the next several years, plans are also underway to journey farther into deep space. Deep space exploration will require a paradigm shift in astronaut medical support toward progressively earth-independent medical operations (EIMO). The Exploration Medical Capability (ExMC) element of NASA's Human Research Program (HRP) is investigating the feasibility and value of advanced capabilities to promote and enhance EIMO.

Developing AI enabled sensors and decision support for military operators in the field.

Wearable sensors enable down range data collection of physiological and cognitive performance of the warfighter. However, autonomous teams may find the sensor data impractical to interpret and hence influence real-time decisions without the support of subject matter experts. Decision support tools can reduce the burden of interpreting physiological data in the field and incorporate a systems perspective where noisy field data can contain useful additional signals.
