Very interesting case study just published in #ActaAstronautica on physiological and biomechanical responses to running in simulated hypogravity while wearing a gravity loading skinsuit, by Phil Carvil Kirsty Lindsay @Space_Doctor Dr Varsha Jain and Dave Green doi.org/10.1016/j.acta…

We are delighted to be awarded this funding from UK Space Agency. Hopefully we will soon have a personalised tourniquet system for spaceflight that has potential to transform exercise countermeasure effectiveness in space πŸ’ͺπŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸš€ Luke Hughes Prof Nick Caplan (he/him) πŸ‘¨πŸΌβ€πŸš€πŸš€πŸ’›πŸ€πŸ’œπŸ–€ NU Sport Ex & Rehab

It was so exciting to see research from the lab as one of a select few experiments, being conducted on Dragon as part of the FRAM2 mission, being introduced to the world just minutes before launch yesterday morning 🀩 #BFR NU Sport Ex & Rehab Northumbria Uni
