Jürgen Stegemann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jürgen Stegemann (* 1929 ; † April 17,  2007 in Liblar ) was a German physiologist and university professor .

Life

Stegemann began his scientific career at the Institute for Physiology and Pathophysiology at the Friedrich-Alexander University in Erlangen . There he conducted research under Otto Friedrich Ranke, in particular on the subject of sensory organs. He then worked at the Max Planck Institute for Occupational Physiology at the University of Dortmund in the working group of EA Müller and under Max Schneider at the University of Cologne . There he dealt with the physiological effects of physical stress.

From 1968 to 1993 Stegemann was a professor at the Institute for Physiology and Anatomy at the German Sport University Cologne (DSHS). According to Dieter Böning's assessment , Stegemann became one of the “defining figures” at the sports university .

His main research interests included exercise physiology, weightlessness and space physiology. Stegemann was the author of the book "Performance Physiology", which was published in several editions. Early on in his work he relied on computer-controlled measuring methods.

From 1983 he was one of the scientists who worked on the planning and development of the physiological measurement system ESA-Anthororack of the European Space Agency . In 1985, Stegmann was involved in the German D-1 space mission as a scientific coordinator for the life science experiments. In 1994 he was awarded the silver medal of the German Sport University.
