Victor M. BARANOV

  b. 1946
  First Deputy Director
  M D, Ph.D., the Chairman of the Problem Committee on human life support during space mission of theRussian Space Agency.
   V. Baranov is at the head of the national programs associated with offering life support to humans in hazardous environments, e.g. space flight, deep-water diving, disasters, expeditions to hostile climates and geographic conditions. He is specifically eager for knowledge of the mechanisms through which the adverse factors of the outer world impact the human organism, the cardio-vascular and respiratory systems in particular, and development of means and methods to increase the human resistance and work capacity.
   Dr. Baranov actively participates in international space cooperation. From 1988 through to1992 he was the Russian co-chair of the Joint Working Group on Space Biology and Medicine within the Intercosmos space program of the socialist countries.
   In 1995 he directed the 135-day ground-based HUBES project on simulation of a prolonged manned space mission performed in conjunction with ESA. He is a member of the International Academy of Astronautics.
   V. Baranov was awarded Gagarin and Korolev medals, the Golden Medal of the Czechoslovakian Academy of Sciences, and Obert Medal (Germany).
   Dr. Baranov authored and co-authored more than 80 scientific papers, monographs, and four inventions. The most significant publications are:
