My work in extreme physiology, or environmental physiology, is the study of how the human body works during exposures to extremes in the environment - heat, cold, altitude, immersion, high G-forces, injury states, exercise, weightlessness, high and low air pressures, and how to perform better in these environments. This interest began as a child as I sat in the snow watching my grandfather, the oldest member of the "Icebergs" walk barefoot over the ice to go ocean swimming every day.

Diving Research

- Until I get a chance to write up diving research and post articles, please see Dr. Cambell's comprehensive web site www.scuba-doc.com

- The Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS) and I are working on a public education program to educate about diving and hyperbarics. Watch this space. Qualified practitioners are invited to apply to contribute in their specialty.

Are there not... Two points in the adventure of the diver: One --when a beggar, he prepares to plunge? Two -- when a prince, he rises with his pearl? I plunge! -- Robert Browning
