From Mountainside to Bedside - Lecture now available online
Prior to leaving for Nepal for our 10th Anniversary celebration, Xtreme Everest's Professor Mike Grocott gave a lecture at Gresham College. Mike spoke about the work of Xtreme Everest over the last ten years and shared some of the data that we have from our research.
As part of the lecture he retold the story of Usha Bista, the climber the team helped to rescue in 2007, as well as reliving the moment he stepped onto the summit of Everest.
The video of his lecture can be viewed via the Gresham College You Tube page and a transcript of his talk can be found here
Gresham College has been offering free public lectures on a variety of subjects since 1597 and continues to offer around five a week. Old lectures and transcripts can be downloaded directly from their website. More information about future lectures and how to book can also be found on their site.
