Life in Space for Life on Earth 2010 Symposium
The European Space Agency (ESA), the International Society for Gravitational Physiology (ISGP), the Italian Society for Space Biomedicine and Biotechnology (ISSBB), and the European Low Gravity Research Association (ELGRA) will hold their joint symposium called “Life in Space for Life on Earth 2010” on 13-18 June 2010 in Trieste, Italy. Scientists and specialist in space and gravitational biology, physiology and experimental medicine will be present at the symposium.
Papers covering the following topics:
- effects of changes in magnitude and direction of the force environment on the physiology and behaviour of humans, animals plants and cells;
- the effects of weightlessness during spaceflight;
- acute and chronic acceleration;
- impact, vibration and the various forms of simulated evolutionary consequences of gravity;
- the role of gravity in the manifestation of scale effects in animals and plants;
- hypergravity and other countermeasures to microgravity;
- simulation of Lunar/Mars habitat;
- altered gravity effects for experimental medicine;
- translational research: from space research to population benefit.
Regular registration fee is 330 €, but early registration fee is 270 € (before 1 May 2010). Reduced fee for students is 120 €. For more information visit symposium website or contact organizers:
