2008 Technical Diving Conference

Still Room Available for the 2008 Technical Diving Conference

Just an update to let you know that there are still spaces available for the first-ever Technical Diving Conference hosted by DAN on January 18-19, 2008 in Durham, NC.

The conference will feature four half-day workshops covering an agenda that includes topics on physiology, decompression, rebreathers and training, and two evenings featuring dinner presentations on wreck and cave penetrations. Discussions will include the operational and medical aspects of technical diving, and the forum will also address ways to improve effectiveness and safety.

Throughout the conference, the workshops, discussions, panels and presentations will be conducted and led by global leaders in the technical diving field, including Simon Mitchell, Dr. Richard Vann, John Chatterton, Richie Kohler, and Jarrod Jablonski.

Early registration for the conference is $325; registrations must be received by Sept. 30, 2007. Any registrations received after that date will be charged the full fee of $425. Registration fees include access to all workshops, conference-sponsored dinners and receptions, presentations and discussion forums, and a souvenir fleece jacket (retail value $75). Register at DAN.

There are still spaces available, but they’re going fast! If you have questions, would like additional information, or need assistance with the registration process, contact research@dan.duke.edu or call (919) 684-2948 x 260. We’ll see you in Durham!
