Long-duration spaceflight missions are on the rise. However, recent literature suggests that prolonged and deep-space exposure is likely to introduce increased risks for brain health and consequent detriments to performance and well-being. Given up-to-date evidence, we argue that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a promising solution for mitigating behavioral and neurocognitive risks associated with long-duration and deep-space missions. We provide support from recent Earth-based applications of TMS and review several advantages it holds over current treatment approaches. Lastly, we highlight some of the needs in the process of applying such technology to the spaceflight environment.
长期太空飞行任务正在增加。然而,最近的文献表明,长时间的深空暴露可能会增加大脑健康风险,并进而损害性能和幸福感。鉴于最新证据,我们认为经颅磁刺激(TMS)是减轻与长期和深空任务相关的行为和神经认知风险的一种有前景的解决方案。我们提供了TMS在近期地面应用中的支持,并回顾了它相对于当前治疗方法的几个优势。最后,我们强调了将此类技术应用于太空飞行环境过程中的一些需求。
