Invited seminar on imaging of Hypoxic effects in the Brain
Impact Summary for the General Public
We have performed a study looking at simulated altitude through reducing the oxygen participants breathe in. This talk was about the results of studies of brain physiology while breathing an atmosphere equivalent to being up a very high mountain
Description of the underpinning research
Reduced oxygen leads to changes in brain physiology - from blood flow to water distribution
Beneficiaries and reach of impact
Researchers at Cardiff, students, and mountaineers
