The microgravity environment experienced in spaceflight induces a range of physiological and cellular adaptations. To investigate these changes on Earth, researchers employ ground-based analogues—such ...

First, multimodal imaging, demographic, and clinical data obtained from 90-d HDTBR experiment. Further statistical analyses were conducted for alteration of CBF. Next, the CBF prediction models were ...

Getting to Mars is difficult. Conceiving a child there could be even tougher than expected. A recent study led by researchers from University of Adelaide has demonstrated that simulated microgravity ...

Just a few days in simulated microgravity can subtly change the way women's blood clots, sparking bigger questions about health monitoring protocols for astronauts who can spend six months or more in ...

Infectious microbes have evolved sophisticated means to invade host cells, outwit the body’s defenses and cause disease. While researchers have tried to puzzle out the complicated interactions between ...

Making babies in space may be more complicated than expected, as new research shows sperm struggle to navigate in microgravity. Scientists found that while sperm can still swim normally, they lose ...

Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS-Canada) has selected the four finalist teams among a pool of applications for its latest initiative, the Canadian Reduced Gravity Experiment ...

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) and chronic low back pain (LBP) together represent a massive global health challenge. Current treatments often focus on symptom relief rather than addressing underlying ...

Science Alert reports that new research is raising doubts about how early life forms in microgravity. The study suggests that embryo development, one of the most delicate biological stages, may be ...
