The NYSIPP & NJSIPP Pain Medicine Symposium was established in 2010 with the primary objectives of educating health care professionals to promote the development and practice of safe, high quality, cost effective interventional pain management techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of pain and related disorders, and to insure patient access to these interventions. Our scientific program provides state-of-the-art information on advanced pain management techniques, pharmacology, neurostimulation,ultrasound, regenerative medicine, vertebral augmentation, spinal stenosis and minimally invasive decompression and minimally invasive sacroiliac fusion. We have also included sessions on international pain practice by world renowned pain experts, cutting edge spinal procedures (including endoscopic discectomy and lysis of epidural adhesions) and a full day safe opiate prescribing program. In 2015, our program expanded to include a full day NP/PA course and a Fellows and Residents program that continues to expand. We are thrilled how this program continues to grow and evolve based on feedback from our attendees and experts in interventional pain management. Congratulations to our 2018 award winners: Dr. Peter Staats, 2018 Lifetime Achievement Award Winner; Dr. Aaron Calodney, 2018 Pain Physician of the Year Award Winner; Dr. Fabricio Dias Assis, 2018 International Scholar Award Winner and Dr. Amit Gulati, 2018 Rising Star Award Winner.

This year’s program will not only provide the tools needed to deliver high-quality patient care, but will also address how to shape anesthesiology care for the future. The program provides sessions grouped by specialty interest with expert speakers from throughout California and across the nation. This upcoming 2018 program is shaped by the feedback from members and past CSA meeting attendees. CSA’s mission is to spark innovation and professional collaboration through education. We set out to emphasize the most positive aspects of CSA education—reflection on the ever-growing complexity of our patients, emphasis on interdisciplinary learning and delivering collaborative care with a multidisciplinary scientific approach. The program starts on Thursday afternoon with three pre-conference workshops that will provide participants with hands-on, small group teaching in the following topics: • POCUS/TEE/Perioperative Ultrasound • Advanced Regional Anesthesia • Women in Leadership All three workshops are designed to expand scope of practice, as well as foster the exchange of acquired skills amongst professionals in the given area.

Rohrs, Editor March 2011 FROM THE CHAIRMAN At the Saturday dinner, we had video interviews BY RON PEARL, MD, PHD of each of the five prior Chairs discussing their RICHARD K. AND ERICKA N. RICHARDS PROFESSOR personal experiences leading the department. CHAIRMAN, DEPARTMENT OF ANESTHESIA [email protected] Although I did not have a video, I did provide comments on my own experience. During my first two decades as a faculty member at Stanford, I focused on clinical care, teaching, and laboratory and clinical research. Becoming a chair was never one of my aspirations. However, during the search for a new Chair, I met with the external candidates and was concerned that they did not appreciate what made our department so special. My decision to be a candidate was based on my view that the department’s future would involve building on, rather than discarding, those special attributes. ____________________________________ From the Chairman 1 It was my great pleasure to be the official host for From the Deputy Chief 3 th last October’s two-day 50 golden anniversary NIH Transformative RO1 Award 5 celebration of the Department of Anesthesia’s Center for Immersive and Simulation-based founding in 1960.

In a hastily arranged hearing—held one day before the secretary of state is slated to publish a list of certified candidates for the June primary election—Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Allen Sumner rejected two Rathore signatories whose names and addresses appeared to be written in the same handwriting of two other petition signers. Because Rathore submitted only the minimum number of qualifying Doiy Jason signatures, 40, the disqualification of Democratic candidate Ro Khanna two names triggered his removal from the ballot. one 17th District resident who signed Neither Rathore nor Vanlandingham Jeffrey Wald, a member of the Alameda election documents for Khanna also attended Wednesday’s hearing, telling County Republican Central Committee, circulated a petition on behalf of the court via email that they were only sued to kick the names of Rathore and Vanlandingham. alerted to the proceedings on Tuesday Joel Vanlandingham, a tech recruiter, off “It’s disingenuous,” said Wald and could not make arrangements to be the ballot.

Mike Honda of San Jose hasn't had to debate since 2000. Photo: David Paul Morris, Bloomberg Rep. Mike Honda, a seven-term House member who represents the overwhelmingly Democratic South Bay, hasn't had to debate an opponent since 2000. But he's just one of the candidates who may have to brush up on his skills before June because of increasing political pressure to confront challengers in a more competitive California arena. Honda, 72, is facing the fight of his political career in his Silicon Valley district from fellow Democrat and former Obama administration trade representative Ro Khanna, 37, who has amassed a 4-1 cash-on-hand advantage. Khanna is demanding the chance to debate the San Jose congressman. Honda's team hasn't ruled out a debate, but it hasn't agreed, either. In past years, the Democratic incumbent in a comfortable Democratic district would never have had to worry about a challenge, let alone a debate. But as the Honda-Khanna race shows, new election rules are shaking up old practices. Under a primary system that took effect for House races in 2012 and applies in statewide contests for the first time this year, the top two vote-getters in the June primary advance to the November general election, no matter their party affiliation.
