Fig. 1. Representative examples of experimental methods used to simulate microgravity.

Fig. 1

Panels a, b show digital images of a rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor. Here vascular cells are grown in culture chambers which are then rotated concentrically around a single axis. Panel c shows a RPM with two independently driven perpendicular frames83. Panel d shows the parabolic flight trajectory84 used to create short-duration microgravity exposure.
