Lessons of Firefighting Go Online (IMAGE)
Caption
Findings from the New York Fire Department's tests on buildings on Governors Island will become part of the NYU Fire Research ALIVE training segment on residential fires. NYU researchers are working with major urban fire departments to build new knowledge on modern residential firefighting into free, game-based online training simulations with an engaging, dynamic format. A grant from the US Department of Homeland Security will also fund development of mobile applications and a module aimed at preventing sudden cardiovascular events among firefighters.
