Asking here because it is somewhat related to Wilderness Medicine... sort of...
So one of the few career paths that interests me besides Medicine would be something along the lines of what people affiliated with National Geographic do. You know, the whole going to remote parts of the world to climb mountains or study some animal or what not thing.
So my question is: Do these sort of expeditions take a Physician with them all that often?
I'm just curious if there is a way to be involved in that sort of thing as a Physician. Nothing like a full-time position. Just an opportunity to go once in awhile and do something, for lack of a better word, "cool".
