  • Central Clinical Laboratory (CCL) at NASA ARC - The CCL provides general chemistry hematology and urinalysis determinations (manual and automated) as well as hormone assays (chromatography and radioimmunoassay) on blood or body fluid samples from humans, primates, and other animals. Human research studies are coordinated with the HRF. [Center for Gravitational Biology Research, NASA Ames Research Center]

  • Human Research Facility (HRF) at NASA ARC - The HRF contains 4100 square feet of floor space and is designed specifically for conducting ground-simulation studies of the physiological responses of humans to space flight. [Center for Gravitational Biology Research, NASA Ames Research Center]

  • NASA Ames Psychophysiological Research Facility - Psychophysiology is the study of the relationship between behavior and physiology. The purpose of this research is to address the NASA requirement for ground-based and space flight studies examining the vestibular / autonomic interaction as related to adaptation to microgravity and readaptation to Earth.

  • NASA ARC Space Physiology Laboratory - The studies performed at this laboratory at NASA Ames Research Center involve Effects of gravity on the cardiovascular system in humans and animals exposed to gravitational stress.
