Tasmanian is Australia’s only maritime state with Hobart as Australia’s Antarctic gateway supporting Southern Ocean, subantarctic and Antarctic shipping and maritime activities. CARMM partners have been delivering cold environment and extreme maritime medical care, support and research over more than six decades. The Australian Antarctic Division, University of Tasmania’s Australian Maritime College, Institute of Marine and Antarctic Science (IMAS) and their clinical, Tasmanian Government, industry and research partners bring together a unique breadth and depth of maritime expertise.
