KSC BIOMEDICAL DIRECTOR RECEIVES OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
Irene D. Long, M.D., director of the Biomedical Office at Kennedy Space
Center, has been presented with the 1998 Outstanding Achievement Award by
Women in Aerospace. The award recognizes Dr. Long's contribution to the
fields of aerospace and occupational medicine, life sciences research,
environmental health and operational management of life sciences support
facilities. The presentation was made Sept. 23 at the Rayburn House Office
Building on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.
Dr. Long is one of six women recognized by the society this year. Among
them was Marta Bohn-Meyer, deputy director for Flight Operations, at NASA's
Dryden Flight Research Center. Bohn-Meyer received the Aerospace Educator
Award.
Women in Aerospace is a nonprofit, professional society dedicated to
expanding women's opportunities for leadership and to increase their
visibility in the aerospace community. In a career where she has risen
steadily to a position of senior management in the U.S. space program, Dr.
Long is a role model for women embarking on careers in medicine and the
aerospace sciences. As Director of the Biomedical Office at the center, she
has encouraged those working in her office to pursue advanced education and
opportunities for self-development.
Dr. Long has made many contributions to aerospace education. Among them, she
is active in the center's educational outreach agenda and is one of the
founders of the Space Life Sciences Training Program. The program
introduces college students to the field of Space Life Sciences and also
aims to increase the number of women and minorities in science and related
fields. Also, at KSC, Dr. Long has been a strong supporter of new
technology systems in order to improve operations and ensure the health and
safety of employees. She introduced the Center-wide Toxic Substance
Registry System (TSRS) which maintains inventories of toxic substances used
and stored onsite.
Dr. Long has served as director of the Biomedical Office since 1994. Prior
to that she served as chief of the Medical and Environmental Health Office
at the center. She has been at KSC since 1982.
