Center for Aerospace Physiology

CWRU's Aerospace Physiology Research Laboratory focuses upon the human physiological response to extreme environmental conditions.

• Our research team routinely travels to Air Force bases and collaborates with tactical aviators to explore factors contributing to cognitive fatique.
• Outcomes from these studies inform our laboratory-based efforts, which have characterized the effects of high doses of inspired oxygen concentrations upon brain structure and function.
• Our ongoing research provides answers and new strategies to enhance adaptation and augment human performance for those living and working within austere environments.
