From a European Space Agency Space Medicine Office
perspective;
1. Significant communication is occcurs between disciplines.
2. Easy access to subject experts is facilitated.
3. Processes and procedures are produced to act as
guidelines for the multiple disciplines to follow.

From a Blue Abyss perspective – we will;
1. Ensure that all of the necessary skills and experiences needed
for human spaceflight related enterprise are present – people
tend to think all the answers are in own discipline!
2. Identify and provide vital hardware and services, not normally
accessible, which is deemed a necessity by involved disciplines.
3. Ensure that subject knowledgeable staff are at hand to enable
topic specific activities to be pursued.
4. Ensure that managers with multidisciplinary backgrounds are
available to coordinate multidisciplinary projects.

1. Engineering principles can be applied to the human
body with effect to the centreline which immediately
provides a visual verification of human posture and its
deviation. Referred to as ‘visio-prediagnostics’.
2. Work as a team - multiple disciplines can integrate
effectively if led well and if all understand the mission
goals.
3. Every discipline sees a different path to the
achievement of a given goal. Understand where these
paths must meet to ensure the integration necessary
for success.
4. Most people simply see what they see and accept the
input as it is. But if you understand what and why you
see what you see ...then you understand its nature –
this enables you to perceive!
This depth of understanding imprints
knowledge on the mind!
