Assuming the radius of rotation is large enough to avoid Coriolis (sp?) and other negative effects of a small rotating crew compartment (hundreds of feet at least), there is no reason that the effects of acceleration, rotational or otherwise, would be distinguishable at any biological level from gravity. At least Einstein thought so.
