Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Canada. Dept. of National Defence. Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine : The Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine (DCIEM) originated in 1939 when the Department of National Defence (DND) recognized the importance of human factors by establishing the inter-departmental Associate Committee on Aviation Medical Research. Sir Frederick Banting, the co-discoverer of insulin, chaired the committee. Another pioneer in human protective systems research was Dr Wilbur Franks, who developed the Franks Flying Suit, the first anti-G suit used in war-time service. The post-war years saw many advances in human factors research, and several changes in the Institute's name and organization. At its present site in Toronto, Ontario since 1952, DCIEM provides its Canadian Forces (CF) and industrial clients with an internationally recognized combination of research facilities and expertise. Defence R&D Canada - Toronto (DRDC Toronto) replaced the title Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine on April 1 2002.
