DAN has established a novel DAN Research Grant Program to support research in various areas related to dive safety. We will support research that builds stronger theory and empirical evidence and contributes to a body of knowledge that can be used to improve the safety of recreational scuba divers.
Grants are developed by DAN’s Internal Research Committee in consultation with leading experts in the diving research. Periodically we publish competitive calls for proposals that define the problems we wish to address as well as eligibility criteria. DAN may also provide funding through open calls for projects addressing our main areas of focus.
DAN Research Focus Areas
- Health and Diving
- Decompression Safety
- Prevention of Diving Injuries
- Treatment of Diving Injuries
DAN organizations serve members all around the globe. Read more about the International DAN Research Committee and global diving research collaboration.
