The rubber hand illusion in microgravity and water immersion
npj Microgravity, 2022 Our body has evolved in terrestrial gravity and altered gravitational conditions may affect the sense of body ownership (SBO). By means of the rubber hand illusion (RHI), we investigated the SBO during water immersion and parabolic flights, where ...

Mètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2021 Space exploration will require life support systems, in which plants can provide nutrients, oxygen, moisture, and psychological well-being and eliminate wastes. In alien environments, plants must adapt to a different gravity force, even the zero gravity

Cell wall assembly and intracellular trafficking in plant cells are directly affected by changes in the magnitude of gravitational acceleration. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Plants are able to sense the magnitude and direction of gravity. This capacity is thought to reside in selected cell types within the plant body that are equipped with specialized organelles called statoliths.

Quantum Gravity: Motivations and Alternatives [PDF]
, 2009 The mutual conceptual incompatibility between General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics / Quantum Field Theory is generally seen as the most essential motivation for the development of a theory of Quantum Gravity.

Active collisions in altered gravity reveal eye-hand coordination strategies. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Most object manipulation tasks involve a series of actions demarcated by mechanical contact events, and gaze is usually directed to the locations of these events as the task unfolds.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Matched spatial transcriptomics and single‐nuclei RNA‐seq were generated for anaplastic and BRAFV600E papillary thyroid cancers revealing generic and tumor‐specific states occurring in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment. In this context, cancer dedifferentiation mirrored organoid maturation through ordered thyroid marker gain/loss ...

Reasoning decline during aging under familiar and unfamiliar physics
Frontiers in AgingPhysical reasoning is the capacity to anticipate how an environment will change as its elements move and interact. This cognitive skill, which is based on humans’ intuitive knowledge of physics, underlies everyday tasks that are potentially critical to ...
