The HARC Community Advisory Committee

To ensure that the High Altitude Research Center best-serves the needs of Summit County, a Community Advisory Council was formed. This group consists of influential members of the Summit County community and meet to develop practice strategy, discuss research progress, develop potential fundraising streams, and identify new opportunities for community impact. The High Altitude Research Center will also have a Scientific Advisory Committee. This Committee will be made up of world-renowned high altitude researchers and regularly meet to ensure the scientific rigor of the practice’s work product and to identify new opportunities for research at the practice.

Ben Honigman, MD

HARC Advisory Committee, Chair

My research interests are involved in how people adjust to living at higher elevations. I am specifically interested in how altitude affects people with heart and lung conditions as well as other co-morbid illnesses

Robert Roach, PhD

HARC Advisory Committee

My research focuses on the broad area of human responses to hypoxia. Current research is focused on three major areas: cerebrovascular hemodynamics in hypoxia and exercise; transcriptomic prediction of human responses to hypoxia; and the integration of systems biology with integrative, whole body physiology to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms of oxygen sensing in humans.
