The increassing demand for a Scott Haldane Level 1 (basic) course in English resulted in the development of the Level 1 part I and the level 1 part II course in English. The complete basic course is now available for all English speaking medical doctors. At least one course per year, organized in The Netherlands, will still be in Dutch, but all other level 1 courses are available in English too.

The International Meeting on Ultrasound for Diving Research is the result of the growing international cooperation between the Scott Haldane Foundation and other leading diving and hyperbaric medicine course developers world wide. This inaugural meeting will bring together experts in the field of diving and decompression physiology to discuss and educate on the use of ultrasound in assessing the stress caused by decompression and the associated risk of decompression sickness (DCS). The lectures by internationally recognized experts and the 'hands on' workshops will be organized  at the Swedish Armed Forces Diving and Naval Medicine Centre, Karlskrona, Sweden on 25th & 26th August 2015. For more information see the ultrasound2015 website.

Information and registration of the Basic course Diving Medicine part 1 is now available on our website. Costa Rica is the 2014 location for this internationally accredited level 1 course which will be organized from November 8 until 15.  Check here for direct information about this course.
