Space

Design, test and analyse instruments measuring energetic particles in space. The appointment combines space-plasma research with laboratory testing, calibration and support for flight instrumentation.

…Stated areas include space and solar-plasma physics, gravitational waves and black-hole science.

…a high-dimensional common information space. Hyperalignment transformations project idiosyncratic individual topographies into the common model information space. These transformations contain topographic basis functions, affording estimates of how shared information in the common model space is instantiated in the idiosyncratic functional topographies of individual brains. This new model of the functional organization of cortex – as m

What happens to human sleep and circadian rhythms in space? There are many challenges that affect sleep in space, including unusual patterns of light exposure and the influence of microgravity. This talk will review the causes and consequences of sleep loss and circadian misalignment during spaceflight and will discuss how missions to the Moon and Mars will be different than missions to the International Space Station.
