Deep Time study: French volunteers leave cave after 40 days in isolation

[sarahazhari]

The 15 participants lived in the Lombrives cave in south-west France with no phones, clocks or sunlight.They slept in tents, made their own electricity, and had no contact with the outside world.
The project aimed to test how people respond to losing their sense of time and space.The so-called Deep Time experiment came to an end on Saturday, allowing the eight men and seven women, aged 27 to 50, who took part to leave the cave.

The brain activity and cognitive function of volunteers was analysed before they entered the cave, to gather data for comparative studies after they left.The purpose of the study has particular relevance during the coronavirus pandemic, a time when lockdown measures have confined millions of people to isolation.
