The latest in a series of books from the International Hypoxia Symposia,
this volume spans reviews on key topics in hypoxia, and abstracts from poster
and oral presentations. The biannual International Hypoxia Symposia are
dedicated to hosting the best basic scientific and clinical minds to focus on
the integrative and translational biology of hypoxia. Long before
‘translational medicine’ was a catchphrase, the founders of the International
Hypoxia Symposia brought together basic scientists, clinicians and
physiologists to live, eat, ski, innovate and collaborate in the Canadian
Rockies.
This collection of reviews and abstracts is divided into six sections,
each covering new and important work relevant to a broad range of researchers
interested in how humans adjust to hypoxia, whether on the top of Mt. Everest
or in the pulmonary or cardiology clinic at low altitude. The sections include:
Epigenetic Variations in HypoxiaHigh Altitude AdaptationHypoxia and SleepHypoxia and the BrainMolecular Oxygen SensingPhysiological Responses to Hypoxia
Dr. Robert Roach is the Director of the Altitude Research Center at the
University of Colorado. He specializes in the study of physiological
adaptations by humans to high altitude, with a recent emphasis on the genomic responses
to allow humans to thrive in hypoxia. Dr. Peter Wagner is a Distinguished Professor
of Medicine and Bioengineering at the University of California, San Diego. His
research addresses the theoretical and experimental basis of oxygen transport
and its limitations in the lungs and skeletal muscles in health and disease. Dr. Peter Hackett is a world-renowned high altitude expert and altitude
research pioneer. He is a leading authority on altitude illness, high altitude
climbing, wilderness medicine, and the effects of altitude on people living and
working in the mountains.
