This webinar will be hosted readily available and live on-demandWednesday, July 19, 2023 11:00 AM Eastern Time Extreme environments trigger structural alterations in the brain that can affect cognition, motor control, the sleep-wake cycle, and understanding. Researchers investigate these changes in an effort to understand their implications in health and illness, particularly aging, learning, memory problems, anxiety, and other neurological disorders. In this webinar given you by The Scientist, Steven Jillings and Rachael Seidler will present their newest findings on neuroplasticity and inefficient brain changes following spaceflight and the techniques scientists utilize to study such changes.Topics to be covered How the structure and function of the human brain changes in response to spaceflightHow human health and performance procedures provide insight into brain changesHow the brain adjusts its function to handle transformed gravitational environmentsHow brain imaging can be a routine test for individuals taking a trip to spaceHow researchers can discover from astronauts to assist comprehend lightheadedness disordersSteven Jillings, PhD Senior ResearcherLab for Equilibrium Investigations and AerospaceUniversity of AntwerpRachael D.
