  • The student will conduct a validation study using the Entrant prototype and other biomarkers of the physiological stress response of participants from Spain. This is a subpart of the validation study that will compare samples from Spain and the Czech Republic. The student will also have the opportunity to participate in one Astroland Space Analog experiment. This will take place in October and it is located in the north of Spain. Astroland is one cave space analogue. During this experiment, different researchers (6) from different countries will join and run different research experiments in the field of human performance and biomedicine. The student will also participate in measuring stress aspects when using virtual reality headsets in exercise settings. Using the Entrant prototype with virtual reality at the exercise laboratory we will be able to precisely measure different aspects of using VR systems as exercise simulators.
