Considerable research has been conducted on Galileo Whole Body Vibration. Most research emanates from over 30 institutions in Europe, including research done at the European Space Agency, and in North America. Currently research is underway in Australia using the Galileo at Griffith University and the University of Queensland and also in New Zealand.
