Need to dive more!
There are several excellent presentations.
The Q&A with Dr. Neal Pollock was very interesting with lots of good questions. Some of the topics touched on were: a max GFHi of 70, forget the 'deepest dive first' rule, being slightly negative on a SS, final stop depth, DCIEM tables, military divers vs. 'regular' divers, and cataracts and PO2.
His main presentation was about innovation and some hazards that also happen to occur alongside.
Dr. Simon Mitchell's presentation was about Human Risk Factors focusing on Violations and Errors ... and a great OZ/Kiwi joke at ~19mins
Links to their videos:
Dr Neal Pollock on the future of diver protection
Professor Simon Mitchell talks 'The shortest road to increased safety in diving'
For all the BSAC 2019 presentations: BSAC Diving Conference 2019 videos of presentations
Like me, if you didn't know what on earth DCIEM tables were, here's a PDF attached. On a first (quick) look, they appear to be ~a group factor more conservative than PADI tables for single dives and several groups more conservative on repetitive dives.
