Emerging plans for travel to Mars and other deep space destinations make it critical for us to
understand how spaceflight affects the human brain and behavior. Research over the past …

Abstract Changes in physiological functions after spaceflight and simulated spaceflight
involve several mechanisms. Microgravity is one of them and it can be partially reproduced …

The present study reports alterations of task-based functional brain connectivity in a group of
11 cosmonauts after a long-duration spaceflight, compared to a healthy control group not …

Microgravity alters vestibular signaling. In-flight adaptation to altered vestibular afferents is
reflected in post-spaceflight aftereffects, evidenced by declines in vestibularly mediated …

This review includes current and updated information about various ground-based
microgravity models and their impact on the human sensorimotor system. All known models …

Astronauts are exposed to microgravity and elevated CO 2 levels onboard the International
Space Station. Little is known about how microgravity and elevated CO 2 combine to affect …

The altered vestibular signaling and somatosensory unloading of microgravity result in
sensory reweighting and adaptation to conflicting sensory inputs. Aftereffects of these …

Spaceflight missions to the International Space Station (ISS) expose astronauts to
microgravity, radiation, isolation, and elevated carbon dioxide (CO2), among other factors …

Astronauts return to Earth from spaceflight missions with impaired mobility and balance;
recovery can last weeks postflight. This is due in large part to the altered vestibular signaling …

Astronauts are exposed to elevated CO2 levels onboard the International Space Station.
Here, we investigated structural brain changes in 11 participants following 30-days of head …
