Microgravity data analysis exploitation

Persons :

• Prof. dr.  PAIVA Manuel - Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB)
  Coordinator of the project
  Financed belgian partner
  Duration: 1/1/2005-31/12/2006
  

Description :

Extract maximal information, analysis and publications from several microgravity (µG) data set acquired since 1998: Neurolab STS-90 and STS-95, ODISSEA, STS-107, 34the ESA Parabolic Flight Campaign. All the data under consideration are related to the cardio-respiratory system behaviour in µG compared to the ground. In order to extract as much information as possible from the existing data, new methods and algorithms must be developed such as the analysis of the breathing during sleep.

Satellite(s) or flight opportunity(ies):

- Space Shuttle
- International Space Station
- Parabolic Flights
