Christian James Lambertsen, M.D., D.Sc. (Hon.) (b. 15 May, 1917) is an American environmental and diving medicine specialist who was principally responsible for developing the US Navy frogmen's rebreathers in the early 1940s for underwater warfare. It was the first device to be called SCUBA. The US Navy considers him to be "the father of the Frogmen".
Education
Lambertsen attended
Rutgers University in
New Brunswick, New Jersey, graduating in 1939 with a bachelor of science degree. He graduated from medical school at
University of Pennsylvania,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1943.
Lambertsen was awarded Honorary Doctor of Science Degree from Northwestern University in 1977.
Army career
Major Lambertsen served in the U.S. Army Medical Corps from 1944 to 1946 where he did a detached service in underwater operations with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). After joining OSS, he was vital in establishing the first cadres of U.S. military operational combat swimmers during late World War II.
His responsibilities included training and developing methods of combining self-contained diving and swimmer delivery for the OSS "Operational Swimmer Group". Following World War II, he trained U.S. forces in methods for submerged operations, including composite fleet submarine / operational swimmers activity.
Civilian career
From 1946 to 1953 Lambertsen served as an instructor to
Professor of
Pharmacology with the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine though he did spend a year as a Visiting Research Associate Professor from 1951 to 1952 for the Department of
Physiology at
University College London,
England. Lambertsen spent the 1950s concentrating on national research needs in undersea medicine (see National Service Activities below). He again took an appointment as Professor of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 1962. He was also named Professor of Medicine in 1972 and Professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of
Veterinary Medicine in 1976. Each of these appointments were held until 1987. In 1985, he became
Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Environmental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. He maintains this position to this day.
Lambertsen is the founder and director of The Environmental Biomedical Stress Data Center at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The University of Pennsylvania's annual Christian J. Lambertsen Honorary Lecture is named for him. On 31 May 2007 the guest speaker was Professor Marc Feldmann, head of Imperial College's Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology who is recognised for his discovery of anti-TNF treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, which has led to a new therapy used by more than a million patients. Dr. Lambertsen was in attendance.
Contributions to environmental medicine
