Boris Vladimirovich Morukov (Russian: Борис Владимирович Моруков; born 1 October 1950 – 1 January 2015) was a Russian physician at the State Research Center RF-Institute for Biomedical Problems (IBMP). He trained with the Russian Federal Space Agency as a research-cosmonaut and flew aboard NASA Space Shuttle mission STS-106 as a mission specialist.
Biography
Morukov graduated from high school in 1967 and received his M.D. from the 2nd Moscow Medical Institute (now Russian State Medical University) in 1973. He joined the professorate in space, aviation and naval medicine at the Institute for Biomedical Problems in 1978 and received a Ph.D. in these disciplines in 1979. As a cosmonaut-physician, Morukov completed medical training in cardiology, gastroenterology, otolaryngology, stomatology, ophthalmology, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation between 1989-91. In 1995, he took an advanced course in emergency medical care. In 1996, he completed a medical training course in endocrinology and hematology. [citation needed]
From October 1990 to February 1992, Morukov attended a basic space-training course at Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center.
1978-1984 Researcher in the Institute for Biomedical Problems (IBMP). 1984-1988 Senior Researcher in the Institute for Biomedical Problems. 1988-1989 Chief of Department of Metabolism and Its Regulation, IBMP. 1989-1994 Cosmonaut-Researcher, Chief Laboratory of Metabolism and Immunology, IBMP. 1995-1998 Cosmonaut-Researcher, Chief Division of the State Research Center RF-Institute for Biomedical Problems.
For more than 20 years, Morukov has been involved in providing medical operations support for manned space flights. From 1979-1980 he provided medical support for the prolonged space missions on the space station "Salyut 6" as a member of the staff in Mission Control Center.
