Being a lab mouse

What's it like to live in a tiny, high-tech chamber for four days at the N.C. Research Campus?

What do you see, hear and feel?

How do you pass the time?

How's the food?

Salisbury Post readers will find out next month.

Kannapolis resident Dustin Lewis, 26, will blog for the Post while living in the metabolic chamber at the Research Campus.

A graduate of South Rowan High School, Lewis will attend Rowan-Cabarrus Community College next year to become a registered nurse. He runs and lifts weights.

Lewis will live in the chamber Oct. 19 and 21, Nov. 30 and Dec. 2. He will blog several times each day, and you will be able to read his entries at www.salisburypost.com.
