Dr. Haghighi and Dr. Chandra wearing the helmets provided by teh DOD for testing and standing
next to our 28' Shock Tube. She believes that our Blast lab is very impressive and is interested in
doing a collaborative project with Dr. Chandra and Team, after seeing our wonderful shock tubes.
All pictured here without the helmets. Kevin Pang from the East Orange VA, Dr. Haghighi from
Bronx VA & Mt. Sinai School of Medicine along with Dr. Chandra from NJIT/CIBM3 believe a
collaboration together would benefit the Soldiers recovery process post exposure to repetative
blasts. A collaboration would benefit science, soldiers and all institutions involved (pictured above).
