Annual Scientific Meeting of EUBS - TRICON2018

Abstract

The European Underwater Baromedical Society (EUBS) aims at advancing the field of diving medicine research by facilitating contacts between researchers and clinicians, by stimulating early stage researchers (ESRs) to submit new work to their peers and elders, and to provide discussion forums aimed at optimising the likely successful outcome of research in the field. It does so by ??? among other activities ??? organizing yearly a scientific Annual Meeting, each year organised in a different ???member??? country. The practical organisation is handled by a ???local organiser??? while the Scientific Committee is steered by EUBS Executive Committee members.The 2018 meeting is conducted in close collaboration with other international scientific organisations in this field ??? South Pacific Undersea Medical Society (SPUMS) and Southern African Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (SAUHMA); with the Hyperbaric Centre of Durban, South Africa, as well as the Hyperbaric Departments of the Medical Universities of Stellenbosch (SA), Sydney (AU), and Gdansk (PL).The ???main body??? of the TRICON2018 meeting will be largely composed of presentations made by EUBS, SPUMS and SAUHMA members (although it is not mandatory to be a member of one of those Societies to submit an abstract) and invited lecturers. These are chosen in order to stimulate innovative thought and cross-domain scientific exchange, however, providing an expert review and historical perspective of a currently ???hot??? topic by a distinguished and esteemed senior scientist is another frequently chosen option, as the originality of research is highly dependent on prior knowledge.
