Description
The Laurel Clark Sea to Space Physiology Research Grants, administered by the Women Divers Hall of Fame (WDHOF), are designed to support graduate-level research focused on human physiology in extreme environments, including diving, high altitude, and space. The program honors Dr. Laurel Clark and seeks to advance scientific understanding of human adaptation to challenging physical conditions. Proposed research should address physiological mechanisms or responses in these environments, fostering innovation and scientific contribution in the field.
