You may be surprised to learn that the University of California San Diego has been on the forefront of high altitude and hypoxia research since 1968. I recently attended the 9th Annual Center for Physiologic Genomics of Low Oxygen Summit (CPGLO) led by Tatum Simonson PhD where I gave a short presentation on Growth At Altitude.

We'd like to recognize Rocky Vista University student of osteopathic medicine Jared who rotated with us a year ago. He just got back from presenting at a conference in Fort Collins on research he conducted on gout in youth at altitude while he was up here in the high country. He will be presenting the same research at the Pediatric Academic Societies conference in Honolulu later this month as well! Keep up the good work, Jared! And as they say in Hawai'i: MAHALO!
