We seek a systematic landscape review of which health parameters are (or should be) monitored in Space, how they are measured today (hardware, protocols, frequency, data quality, anything measured in tandem and how/if AI based methods are used) and how to replicate Earth based analogues of such systems that can be used as a test bed. Any information about the challenges of measuring in space should also be included within the survey of monitored parameters. Key Accountabilities/Responsibilities:  Scoping and Protocol: Establish the scope of the review, and the review methodology together with the investigation team  Systematic/structured literature review  Parameter collation and mapping to type of space mission, duration (other parameters)  Essential Skills:  Background in one of: biomedical engineering, human physiology, space medicine, human factors engineering, translational health technology (or similar)  Experience of performing literature reviews  Familiarity with use of Reference Managers  Desirable Skills:  Quantitative/Data Visualisation skills (Python?)  Experience in data management  Postgraduate or relevant research experience  Works well within a team and independently   Please note that unfortunately we can not accept Certificate of Sponsorship (COS) for Casual Work at the University of Southampton.
