TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Aerospace or aviation medicine? JO - Aviation, space, and environmental medicine A1 - Martin, G. A. SP - 257 EP - 258 VL - 65 IS - 3 N2 - As the United States and its international partners prepare Space Station Freedom components and systems for operational readiness, and as the space medicine community expands its research efforts, the U.S. Air Force finds itself with little direct input into these endeavors. Due to fiscal and patient care commitments, the Air Force has gone from its early position of leadership and pioneering in space medicine to its present day lack of involvement. Clearly, if the Air Force wishes to have any influence in this growing field, and to continue to be considered a leader in "Aerospace" Medicine, efforts must be made now to reinvest Air Force resources and physicians into current research and operational Space Medicine projects.
