Back on home turf in Kansas City!

Waving goodbye to Akureyri on my way to Reykjavik.

After nearly six weeks in Iceland serving as a Fulbright Specialist it is good to return home to Kansas City and the University of Kansas Medical Center. While it was a very fruitful and successful trip, I am happy to be back with my fellow Jayhawks.

As I get settled back into my normal routine at KU Medical Center, I thought I would share one last batch of photographs from my stops in Akureyri and Reykjavik.

Inside of Harpa, a concert hall and conference center in Reykjavik. Below I'm standing with my host, Kjartan Olafsson, in front of Harpa.




This is Hallgrimskirkja Church in Reykjavik. Located in the middle of the city, the church is one of Reykjavík's best-known landmarks. Standing 244 feet tall it is the tallest church in Iceland and is visible throughout the city.

Stefan Yngvason, M.D., is director of rehabilitation medicine at Landspitali University Hospital (the National University Hospital of Iceland) in Reykjavik. Below is a presentation I gave at the hospital.

    Goodbye Iceland
