Biofluid modeling of the coupled eye-brain system and insights into simulated microgravity conditions.

This work aims at investigating the interactions between the flow of fluids in the eyes and the brain and their potential implications in structural and functional changes in the eyes of astronauts, a condition also known as spaceflight associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS). To this end, we propos...
