A mesoscale study of the degradation of bone structural properties in modeled microgravity conditions

One of the most important alterations that occur in man and experimental animals during spaceflight concerns the skeletal system, and entails important bone loss and degradation of mechanical properties. In the present work we investigate ex vivo the long-term effects of weightlessness (simulated mi...
