Maj. Chris Backus checks a patient at the flight medicine clinic on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson

Maj. Chris Backus, a pilot-physician, checks a patient at the flight medicine clinic on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, March 9, 2016. Pilot-physicians are involved in the research, development, testing, and evaluation of new and current Air Force systems and missions. Because of unique medical and human factors qualifications, pilot-physicians are particularly well suited to help develop new aircraft, life support equipment, and avionics or software upgrades. This is accomplished to enable aircrews to better adapt to the change in mission requirements. Backus is currently assigned to the 673rd Medical Group. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt.

Functional Imaging Scan

A functional imaging scan from a neuroimaging study performed by the Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) Team at the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, shows the increase in brain activation from actual transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) compared with that of a sham consumer product. The NIBS lab, part of the Cognitive Performance Optimization Section, Applied Neuroscience Branch, Warfighter Interface Division, Human Effectiveness Directorate of the 711th Human Performance Wing, explores how directed electrical stimulation to the human brain affects cognition, fatigue, mood and other areas with the end goal of improving warfighter awareness, memory and focus.
