Great news, our new honours student just won a major award! Patrick Montgomery earned the prestigious Presidents award. Congrats Patrick! krigolsonlab.com/news/new-ho… @thatneurosciguy
We now have approval to talk about our newest research project, brainhealth.games . Here, we hope to gather data for classic psychological tasks from as many participants as possible, and weigh that data against… instagram.com/p/CDmE4uVjlOu/…

Follow me @thatneurosciguy and my lab @krigolsonlab ! Thanks for covering our mission!
.@UVic researcher Olav Krigolson (@KrigolsonLab) and two PhD students co-led a team that embarked on a 9-day mission in the @HI_SEAS Habitat in Hawaii to study cognitive fatigue in astronauts for future Mars missions, using themselves as the test astronauts! #ScientistFridays

Preliminary results suggest that the cognitive ability of #Astronauts on #Mars will decline throughout each day. ` ` ` ` @HI_SEAS @thatneurosciguy @BinstedUBC @astro_Michaela @uvic @UBC @UCalgary @ChooseMuse #NASA #Science #Brain #AcademicChatter #phdlife

Can we measure the cognitive ability of astronauts on Mars? Preliminary results suggest that we will be able to. ` ` ` ` #NASA #Science #Brain #Space @thatneurosciguy @BinstedUBC @astro_Michaela @uvic @UBC @UCalgary @krigolsonlab @HI_SEAS #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Day 9: Our last mission day! We kept ourself busy for the last day in the habitat. This ending is bitter sweet, as we are excited to see our families again but sad this amazing experience has to end. We have… instagram.com/p/B50kDOml4zS/…

Some proof that work gets gone while Olav is gone. Researchers Robert Trska, mathewhammerstrom, and @evan__carey just wrapped up a study with Roots to Thrive in Nanaimo assessing brain function after mindfulness… instagram.com/p/B5rldndFmc2/…
Day 6: More cave diving! We’re starting to see some fatigue-related affects in our data after just 4 days in the habitat, proving why our cognitive assessments will be imperative when astronauts get to the real… instagram.com/p/B5rlAk5lqNV/…
New post for Day 5. Somehow this gets cooler every day. Check out krigolsonlab.com/mars-blog for more information on our mission and the data we’ve been collecting. instagram.com/p/B5pAuiAF6Pw/…

Day 4: Today, we ventured out of the habitat for data collection. These astronaut suits are 100% cooler than our lab coats. #neuroscience #uvic #mars #nasa #astronauts #brainhealth instagram.com/p/B5mTB8xlI6r/…

Day 3: Our mission officially begins! We have now entered the habitat and our simulation has started. Next, we’re planning out our upcoming ventures and testing equipment. #neuroscience #uvic #nasa #mars #uvicbiomed instagram.com/p/B5mSvzoFFcL/…

Day 2 in the books. After some more training, we’re ready to dive into the mission. This is where the fun begins. #neuroscience #nasa #mars #uvic instagram.com/p/B5i0_jIFeoB/…

Don’t worry! We’ll still be posting about the mission everyday. Stay tuned to get a look inside a real NASA training mission with the Krigolson Lab.
