Abstract

This paper considers the role of the Academy of Sciences in the formation and development of space physiology. Academicians M.V. Keldysh, N.M. Sisakian, L.A. Orbeli, V.N. Chernigovsky, A.V. Lebedinsky, V.V. Parin, O.G. Gazenko, A.I. Grigoryev, and other famous Russian scientists made a significant contribution to research in the field of space life sciences. Their active participation in studies allowed manned spaceflights to be carried out. The accumulated experience of traditional physiology made it possible to solve the fundamental problems of new scientific areas related to the presence of man in space. The Institute of Biomedical Problems, which in its activities has always relied on cooperation with many institutes of the Academy of Sciences, has made a significant contribution to the development of space physiology and related sciences, which made our country one of the leaders in manned astronautics.
