This work aims to characterize longitudinal trajectories of mental health including substance use in large, community-based samples, as well as the individual-, school-, and community-level risk and protective factors that may modulate the expression of mental health symptoms over time.

  The aim of the GRIP experiment is to investigate how gravity impacts the kinematics and dynamics of the upper limb during dexterous manipulation of objects and how the central nervous system adapts to long-term exposure to microgravity and subsequently back to Earth gravity. Hence, we proposed to conduct a set of experiments on healthy human subjects, involving the manipulation of an instrumented object during exposure to normal and microgravity, and to study how the central nervous system adapt…
