JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska (March 24, 2026) Rebecca Weller, a research physiologist with Naval Health Research Center (NHRC), inspects the 350-pound ice blocks carved out by the Alaska Dive Search and Rescue team. Through its cutting-edge cold water immersion studies, the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC) develops life-saving strategies that enable the warfighter to overcome the initial, lethal shock of entering frigid water. This vital research provides U.S. Naval, Marine Corps, and joint forces with the tools to maintain cognitive function and enhance survivability in the most extreme maritime environments.
