She’ll be comin’ round the mountain when she comes…

Damn. I was so optimistic last week about scheduling subjects and making sure people are available to help out. It’s nearly impossible to schedule busy doctors man… And between my own schedule, I’m missing alot of this summer. The White Mountain research trip got moved up a few days so I am leaving July 3rd through the 6th. But that trip is going to be alot of fun. I’ll post from the mountain and upload a bunch of pictures.

It’s a really nice facility: White Mountain is right out of Bishop, CA in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The Barcroft Laboratory is owned collectively by the UCs and run by UCSD facility, which is used by many different labs on campus. The Barcroft lab is at 12,500 ft, and the summit of White Mountain is at 14,252. The UCSD Physiology Lab uses it for human studies concerning high altitude and changes to different systems. Some labs up there deal with weather/meteorology, and others deal with animal studies, plant studies, etc. It’s going to be interesting to see what and who I will encounter up there.
