Can life in extreme environments foster our understanding of the limits and adaptability of cognition and brain plasticity? We review characteristics of spaceflight and spaceflight analogues, such as bed rest, dry immersion, parabolic flights, and isolated and controlled confinement, and discuss the potential of utilizing these research settings to advance cognitive neuroscience.
极端环境下的生命能否帮助我们理解认知和大脑可塑性的极限和适应性?我们回顾了航天飞行和航天模拟,如卧床休息、干式潜水、抛物线飞行以及隔离和受控禁闭的特点,并讨论了利用这些研究环境推进认知神经科学的潜力。
