The entire field of underwater blast science started with explosions in the battle for France in 1940 and a paper called "Lessons From Dover" that looked at trauma patterns. Rachel Lance returns to WW2TV to talk about the science of blasts and explosions both above and below water and equally on land. Drawing on examinations into Shell Shock in the First World War, Rachel will look at TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) in war and what has been learned.

Rachel Lance is a biomedical engineer and blast-injury specialist who works as a scientific researcher on military diving projects at Duke University. Before returning to graduate school to earn her PhD, Dr. Lance spent several years as an engineer for the United States Navy, working to build specialized underwater equipment for use by navy divers, SEALs, and Marine Force Recon personnel. She is also the author of In the Waves, and her writing has appeared in Time, Wired, Scientific American, and more. A native of suburban Detroit, Dr. Lance lives in Durham, North Carolina. https://rachellancewrites.com/
