Are astronauts more sensitive to CO2 in space?

Adv. Undergrad
Fall 2009
Volunteer/Credit
|
An existing integrated model of human ventilatory control system will be used to assess whether spaceflight-induced physiologic changes or the spacecraft environment (captured through changes in nominal model parameters) may cause increased CO2 sensitivity. Basic familiarity with differential equations is required; knowledge of basic physiology, or at least substantial interest, is highly recommended. If interested, please send your resume and a writing sample to chrisc@mit.edu.
