OSKAR FRANBERG DIRIGE LE GROUPE DE RECHERCHE en ingénierie des systèmes marins à l'Institut de technologie de Blekinge à Karlskrona, en Suède, et est directeur général du Centre national suédois de technologie sous-marine. Ce père de trois enfants est ingénieur de formation et travaille depuis plus de 20 ans dans le domaine de la recherche sur la plongée, en particulier sur la physiologie des recycleurs.
FISHING AND BEING ON THE WATER with family while growing up influenced Michael Lombardi to study marine biology. He and a friend got certified to dive during his junior year of high school, thinking it would be a useful tool for his desired field. Lombardi had no idea what professional diving meant or where it would take him.
Melissa Ilardo, PhD, is passionate about working in the distinct field of genetic analyses on individuals, primarily in Indigenous populations who have adapted to unique lifestyles or environments.
Pieter-Jan van Ooij, MD, PhD, is the head of the Department of Research, Innovation, and Education at the Royal Netherlands Navy’s Diving Medical Centre (DMC).
Born in Uruguay in 1982, Alejandro Garbino, MD, PhD, has been fascinated with air and sea since he was young. His passion for the air stemmed from an uncle who flew banner airplanes along the beach.
Connue pour son travail de développement d'algorithmes et de méthodes sophistiquées pour gérer et coordonner des systèmes complexes, Silvia Ferrari a mis son expertise au service de l'intégration de la technologie de la plongée sous-marine aux systèmes robotiques.
Les chercheurs du laboratoire Shields de l'université du Colorado à Boulder, dirigés par Wyatt Shields, professeur adjoint de génie chimique et biologique, étudient comment les microparticules artificielles, spécialement conçues pour la biomédecine, peuvent être utilisées dans des domaines tels que la biodétection, où elles se lient à certaines molécules ou cellules pour permettre l'administration de médicaments et la détection de conditions biologiques.
In 2021 Peter Buzzacott, PhD, of Curtin University in Perth, Australia, received DAN’s Alfred Bove Research Grant for Cardiac Health in Scuba Diving. What began with a simple proposal has since developed into a training network for the next generation of scientists and led to a research network between Curtin University and Fiona Stanley Hospital in Western Australia.
The Center for Research and Education in Special Environments (CRESE) at the University at Buffalo in New York is at the forefront of environmental physiology research, investigating how various environmental stressors impact human health and performance.
Emmanuel “Manu” Dugrenot, PhD, a senior researcher at Divers Alert Network (DAN), brings cutting-edge physiological research to the development of safety protocols for both technical and recreational diving. His research […]
