At the Bedside of Thomas Pesquet: Exploring the Physiological Limits of Space Missions
Talk by Dr. Brigitte Godard
🗓️ Date: 5th June
🕕 Time: 6:00 PM
📍 Venue: Alliance Française de Delhi
Join us for an extraordinary evening with Dr. Brigitte Godard, a distinguished flight surgeon at the European Astronaut Centre in Cologne, Germany (2010–2022), as she delves into the challenges of human health in space.
Drawing from her work on the Proxima mission and her close collaboration with French astronaut Thomas Pesquet, Dr. Godard will shed light on how space is a uniquely harsh and hazardous environment for the human body. From bone density loss and muscle atrophy to the effects of microgravity on cardiovascular and immune systems, this talk will offer a rare behind-the-scenes look at the cutting-edge medical science that supports human spaceflight.
Whether you’re passionate about space exploration, medicine, or human resilience, this event promises to inspire and inform.
