Microgravity simulator reveals how gravity shapes the human genome

Original: A microgravity simulator shows exactly how gravity alters the human genome and alters cellular biology

Researchers have developed a microgravity simulator that demonstrates how gravity influences the human genome and cellular biology. By replicating weightless conditions on Earth, the device shows measurable changes in gene expression and cell behaviour when gravity is removed. The findings could inform astronaut health research, space medicine, and our understanding of how fundamental gravity is to human biology.

Why now: Growing interest in spaceflight and astronaut health has put research on gravity's biological effects in the spotlight
