Dr. Mohammed Kassemi
Chief Scientist
National Center for Space Exploration Research
Dr. Kassemi leads several computational/experimental research efforts to better understand the impact of microgravity fluid flow in such diverse areas as cryogenic fluid management and astronaut physiology. A Research Professor at Case Western Reserve University, Dr. Kassemi is the Principal Investigator for the Zero Boil-Off Tank experiment scheduled to fly on the International Space Station in 2010. He also leads the cardiovascular and vestibular modeling teams of the Digital Astronaut Project, a collaboration among NASA, the University of Mississippi, and the Cleveland Clinic Foundation to develop models describing the effect of microgravity on human systems.
