Abstract

 The Aerospace Physiology Institute (IFISAL) was established as a key sector within the Ministry of Aeronautics, aiming to modernize and enhance Aerospace Medicine in Brazil. Located at the Air Force University, IFISAL plays a crucial role in the training, research, and development of professionals in the field, including medical officers from the Air Force and other Armed Forces, as well as civilian physicians. Moreover, the institute offers specialized courses such as the Specialization Course in Aerospace Medicine (CEMAE) and the Instructor Preparation Course in Physiological Training (CPI-TF), aiming to improve the understanding of physiological reactions in flight, the assessment of human limitations in aerial activities, and the prevention of potentially dangerous situations. With modern infrastructure and adequate logistical support, IFISAL seeks to promote Flight Safety and operational excellence in the Brazilian aerospace context.
