The Academy of Underwater Arts and Sciences (AUAS) is pleased to announce, with matching funds from Divers Alert Network (DAN), the creation of the AUAS/DAN Diving Medicine Research Scholarship.  This annual scholarship will encourage research on topics that expand the body of knowledge of human physiology in the marine environment. “The scholarship was created through a generous initial donation from a NOGI Fellow and with the matching funds from DAN, will support important diving medicine research into the future,” stated Dan Orr, President of the AUAS. This annual scholarship provides financial support of up to $10,000. Requests for information or an application for the AUAS/DAN Diving Medicine Scholarship can be sent to info@auas-nogi.org.
