Xtreme Everest Publications


The Xtreme Everest research portfolio has been generated by a diverse group of healthcare workers, scientists and others. In some cases, the papers published relate to a particular research expedition, such as Caudwell Xtreme Everest or Xtreme Everest 2. However, some of the publications are more generic. Please see the links to the right of this page for details of reviews, abstracts, case reports and other publications.

When publishing research generated by our larger expeditions, it is impossible to list all the investigators as authors. Where this is the case we have included the expedition 'research group' as an author on each paper. Please see the links on the right of this page for the research group membership for these expeditions.

The expeditions/projects they relate to can be found in bold above each title:
