Cardiovascular responses to simulated spaceflight: molecular signatures and surrogate outputs to measure CVD risk

IN THIS GROUND-BASED RODENT STUDY WE AIM TO SYSTEMATICALLY DEFINE MOLECULAR SIGNATURES OF CARDIOVASCULAR PERFORMANCE ACROSS DOSES OF ACUTE SIMULATED GALACTIC COSMIC RADIATION (FIVE-ION GCR) AT EARLY AND LATE TIMEPOINTS POST-EXPOSURE. WE ALSO WILL DE
