This 70‐day bed rest campaign was comprised of 6 integrated studies and conducted at the NASA Flight Analogs Research Unit (FARU). The FARU is located at the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, Texas and is a satellite unit of the Institute for Translational Sciences - Clinical Research Center. This presentation will describe the FARU, discuss the utility of the bed rest platform for use in these studies, and introduce the studies that participated in the CFT 70 bed rest campaign. Information in this presentation will serve as the background for subsequent talks from each individual study. Individual study presentations will discuss preliminary results from completed subjects. Studies included in CFT70 were:  Physiological Factors Contributing to Post Flight Changes in Functional Performance. J. Bloomberg, NASA  Integrated Resistance and Aerobic Training Study. L. Ploutz‐Snyder, USRA  Testosterone Supplementation as a Countermeasure Against Musculoskeletal losses during Space Exploration. R. Urban, University of Texas Medical Branch  Effects of Retronasal Smelling, Variety and Choice on Appetite & Satiety. J. Hunter, Cornell University  AD ASTRA: Automated Detection of Attitudes and States through Transaction Recordings Analysis. C. Miller, Smart Information Flow Technologies, LLC  Bed Rest as a Spaceflight Analog to Study Neuro‐cognitive Changes: Extent, Longevity, and Neural Bases. R. Seidler, University of Michigan
