Breathing and ventilation during weightless flight
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how your lungs and breathing work during a special flight that mimics the feeling of weightlessness. The goal is to learn more about how the body responds in space-like conditions, which could help future astronauts.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a healthy adult between 18 and 65 years old.
- You can join if you live in France (or are covered by European health insurance).
- You need to pass a medical check similar to what private pilots must pass.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You must be free of current illness like flu, fever, or stomach issues.
- You cannot be in another research study right now.

This trial tests whether starting non-invasive ventilation (breathing support) early in ALS helps people breathe easier and live better. If you've been diagnosed with ALS in the last 6 months and haven't used a breathing machine before, you may qualify.
This study tests how exercise before breathing pure oxygen affects the body, helping to prepare astronauts for spacewalks. It may also offer insights into preventing decompression sickness in divers and aviators.
This study uses virtual reality and a short, guided breathing exercise to explore how your body awareness is affected. It may help researchers better understand how the brain processes body signals.
This study looks at how people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and healthy volunteers experience shortness of breath at rest, during exercise, and during a virtual reality activity. It also tests whether a placebo (a fake treatment) can affect breathlessness. This could help improve future treatments for breathing difficulties.
This study compares two ways of testing if overweight or obese patients can breathe on their own after being on a ventilator. You will be randomly assigned to one of two breathing trials (pressure support or a T-piece) to see which works better for helping you get off the ventilator.
This study tests how short periods of low oxygen (like at high altitude) affect your body's breathing control. It is for healthy people and may help researchers better understand breathing during sleep.
