Dr. Van Dover was recently appointed the new director of the Duke University Marine Lab. Duke has put together an interesting article on her career and her research that is definitely worth reading. She's done a lot of amazing things, such as being the first female pilot of the Alvin submersible, and has been a prolific writer. I cite her work in almost every page of my dissertation. Below the fold is a video Duke produced asking Dr. Van Dover "What is it like in a submarine?"
