The recent advancements in wearables and machine learning have paved the way for unparalleled approaches to monitor physiological parameters, prevent diseases and medical conditions, and to assist, and treat patients that suffer from them. These approaches also show great potential in studying human physiology in extreme conditions. Wearable devices can provide real-time information about human health and well-being in extreme environments, enabling early detection of any changes or abnormalities in normal physiological function. In addition, wearables and recent advances in physio-logging can alleviate the impact of numerous diseases, and medical conditions globally. These approaches will impact our life also by reducing the cost of healthcare and increasing patients' quality of life. Noteworthy strides have already been accomplished, evoking enthusiasm among patients and researchers alike.
