International Journal of Computer Science in Sport, 2019 Hypogravity treadmills have become a popular training tool in distance running and triathlon. Counter-intuitively, tibial acceleration load is not attenuated by hypogravity unloading during running, while, equally surprisingly, leaps become flatter ...

Hypothalamic Control during Hypogravity
Biological Sciences in Space, 1988 Hypogravity (low G) has been known to elicit many changes in automatic and endocrine functions which may be regulated by the hypothalamus. We investigated hypothalamic neuron activity during low-G simulation and its involvement on regulation of muscle electrolytes and Ca metabolism.

Mechanical Determinants of the U-Shaped Speed-Energy Cost of Running Relationship
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the energy cost of running (Cr) and speed and its mechanical determinants by comparing running in normal [100% body weight (BW)] and reduced (20% and 60% BW) gravity conditions at

Biomechanics at the workplace under hypogravity conditions
, 2022 The main goal of my research is to establish guidelines for workplace design based on human biomechanics: specifically sitting workplaces and handling areas in 1/6G-1/3G (Moon, Mars) conditions. Such a workplace could be used in long-term space missions in order to maximize worker performance and minimize the risks of musculoskeletal injuries. Research

Hypogravity as a risk factor for increased intraocular pressure [PDF]
Bulletin of Russian State Medical University, 2019 Space medicine has long studied the impact of reduced gravity on the human body. Increasing complaints of insufficient visual acuity during and after space flights have been recently drawing a lot of attention to the effects of hypogravity on astronauts’ vision.

Why do we transition from walking to running? Energy cost and lower leg muscle activity before and after gait transition under body weight support [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Minimization of the energetic cost of transport (CoT) has been suggested for the walk-run transition in human locomotion. More recent literature argues that lower leg muscle activities are the potential triggers of the walk-run transition.

Rapid selection and proliferation of CD133+ cells from cancer cell lines: chemotherapeutic implications. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are considered a subset of the bulk tumor responsible for initiating and maintaining the disease. Several surface cellular markers have been recently used to identify CSCs.
