From Nov 9th to Nov 16th 2019 we visited Italy. The trip started in Rome with the usual jaw dropping and splendid structures.<\/p>\n

We then traveled to Firenze and the visit to “David” was indeed interesting. Particularly because, we realized that the bust obtained at the time of Michelagelo’s death was not the source of attraction but rather his magnificent David Sculpture. Fabulous indeed because of the weight of statue, the fact that it was sculptured in a Marmol piece that was not perfect, and that sustaining more than 6 tons of weight required him to leave a support next to his right leg. Truly awesome.<\/p>\n

But the look on David’s face is of particular interest as it shows a calculating stare, right before the battle with Goliath. I stand, in life, staring as David in the struggle to put things straight in relation to Chronic Mountain Sickness in the scientific world.<\/p>\n

We then went on to Bolzano to visit the terraXcube laboratory under the direction of the notable Hermann Brugger as Head and Giacomo Strapazzon as Vice-Head.<\/p>\n

There at Eurac, we gave a talk on Space Travel in a chronic hypoxia environment and in relation to our concepts of Chronic Mountain Sickness.<\/p>\n

It was an interesting visit as this facility is quite big and top of the line, of course. A research project was being started the 2nd day we were there. We met many of the scientists in a wonderful lunch and we discussed things of common interest.<\/p>\n

We traveled to Milano and met our friends Prof. Giuseppe Miserocchi and his wife Cristina.  At  the University of Milano Prof. Giuseppe Miserocchi gave a splendid talk in relation to his trip to Bolivia and his recent work on pulmonary circulation time in hypoxia.<\/p>\n

Prof. Dr. Gustavo Zubieta-Calleja followed with  a talk on Space Travel in a Chronic Hypoxia Environment. Very interesting team of professors and students. We  enjoyed a beautiful and delicious dinner in their house with Sandro and Patrizia.<\/p>\n

Next day we headed to Venice and had to put on plastic rain boots as there was rain water in the streets, when we arrived. However in 1 hour the level went down and we were able to enjoy such a wonderful city.<\/p>\n

It has been an honor to give talks in such  highly scientific environments blessed with remarkable and historic geniuses, Italia!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
