It is also host to the largest aeromedical library in the world. USAFSAM has been a leader in the field of aerospace medicine and human performance from the beginnings of aviation through the onset of the space age and into the present, and is the oldest continually operating institution of its kind. It is the headquarters of the Air Force Materiel Command, one of the major commands of the Air Force. USAF SCHOOL OF AEROSPACE MEDICINE – USAFSAM is the premier institute for education and worldwide operational consultation in Aerospace and Operational Medicine. Wright-Patterson AFB is 'one of the largest, most diverse, and organizationally complex bases in the Air Force' with a long history of flight test spanning from the Wright Brothers into the Space Age. RH focuses on four Core Technical Competencies: Adaptive Warfighter Interfaces, Training, Medical & Operational Bioeffects, and Bioeffects. The Directorate is the heart of Airman-centered science and technology for the Air Force. In addition, the Wing includes about a dozen smaller operating locations within the United States and internationally.ĪIRMAN SYSTEMS DIRECTORATE – RH provides science and leading-edge technology to define Airman capabilities, vulnerabilities, and effectiveness train warfighters integrate operators and weapon systems protect Air Force personnel and sustain aerospace operations. The 711 HPW accomplishes its mission through distinct but complementary mission units and an integrated staff located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, OH. The 711 HPW also functions as a joint Department of Defense Center of Excellence for human performance sustainment and readiness, optimization, and enhancement through partnerships with the Naval Medical Research Unit-Dayton and nearby universities, industry, and medical institutions. Leveraging a convergent sciences approach and supported by state-of the-art research facilities and classrooms, the Wing provides the Air Force with unparalleled expertise to maximize Airman availability, enhance Airman performance, and ensure resource efficiency - now and in the future. The Wing’s multidisciplinary workforce is comprised of more than seventy occupational specialties across science, technology, and aerospace medicine.
Established under the Air Force Research Laboratory, the 711 HPW is comprised of the Airman Systems Directorate (RH) and the United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM). The 711th Human Performance Wing (711 HPW) leads the development, integration, and delivery of Airman-centric research, education, and consultation enabling the Air Force to achieve responsive and effective global vigilance, global reach, and global power now and in the future.
