Research to date into human psychological and sociological effects based on on-orbit near-Earth experiences may have limited generalizability to a long-distance, multi-year space expedition, such as a mission to a near-Earth asteroid (which currently is being considered by NASA) or to Mars. In the case of Mars, new stressors will be introduced ...
Krogh's principle states that "for such a large number of problems there will be some animal of choice, or a few such animals, on which it can be most conveniently studied." This concept is central to those disciplines of biology that rely on the comparative method , such as neuroethology , comparative physiology , and more recently functional ...
The American Physiological Society was founded in 1887 with 28 members. [2] Of them, 21 were graduates of medical schools, but only 12 had studied in institutions with a physiology professor.
