HARC Embarks On Next Steps in Research Journey

In the summer of 2022, we invited Summit County residents and associates of St. Anthony Summit Hospital to take part in the Healthy Summit Survey Project through the High Altitude Research Center (HARC). This one-of-a-kind research study marks the first large population, high altitude study in the United States and was made possible by the University of Colorado School of Medicine, Altitude Research Center, St. Anthony Summit Hospital and St. Anthony Summit Health Foundation.

We’re happy to report that as of August 1, 2023, we were able to close the survey and begin assessing the data thanks to the incredible turnout of participants.

Thank you to our HARC champions for helping this groundbreaking research come to life. Stay tuned for more updates, including research findings, pending publication. You can continue to support the HARC study by making a gift via emailing hello@harcsummit.org.
