Our growth and success stem from Vanderbilt University Medical Center’s five-pillar commitment to excellence: people, service, quality, growth & finance, and innovation. Vanderbilt’s credo drives us to achieve excellence in healthcare, research and education; we treat others as we wish to be treated; and we continuously evaluate and improve our performance. As the role of the anesthesiologist evolves into that of a perioperative consultant, our diverse team of experts remains at the forefront of knowledge and technology in patient care, research and education. Our values—compassion, creativity, commitment and collaboration— are the keystones of our structure and systems. You will see evidence of this throughout this guide. Our patients are recovering faster and with greater comfort through implementation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols, a collaborative effort led by our faculty, our trainees and our surgical colleagues. Our informatics infrastructure uses innovative data analyses to increase patient safety and clinician effectiveness. COVID-19 has prompted many other changes across the medical center. Despite all that is happening, Vanderbilt University Medical Center is dedicated to maintaining the same groundbreaking and outstanding care that our patients depend upon. And we are more committed than ever to all the extra missions that distinguish academic medical centers from other hospitals – education, discovery and leadership.

    Fin al P r og ram AUA 62nd Annual Meeting April 23–25, 2015 Loews Vanderbilt Hotel Nashville, Tennessee hosted by Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Welcome to the Association of University Anesthesiologists 62nd Annual Meeting! Welcome to the Association of University Anesthesiologists 62nd Annual Meeting hosted by the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, Tennessee. Over the next 3 days, you will have an invigorating intellectual and social experience. The Meeting Planning Committee, Drs. Sandberg, Emala, and Gaiser have developed an exciting program including a review of educational research, measurement of educational effectiveness, the trajectory of personalized medicine, and new original research from members and guests. Annual Meeting Highlights include: Thursday, April 23 The Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) Program (Part 1) and Moderated Poster Discussion Session will highlight original research from your peers and colleagues and research awards will be presented during Oral Presentations. During the break, be sure to visit the poster room to view all of the abstract submissions. Friday, April 24 Friday is a full day packed with engaging presentations. The Educational Advisory Board (EAB) Program (Part 1) will address the State of the Art for Education Research. After the break, EAB (Part 2) will explore Measuring Knowledge in Anesthesia — a challenging topic for all involved in residency education. The afternoon session will include a Mini-Symposium, presented by SAB, entitled Perioperative Genomics followed by the President’s Panel which explores Professional Accountability: Dealing with Behaviors that Undermine a Culture of Safety and Reliability and the Genomes, Phenomes, and Personalized Medicine: The Promise of Genomic Medicine in EHRs.

  • Abstracts 2013
    ABSTRACTS 2013 Oral presentations followed by Posters Alphabetical by first name of first author ORAL PRESENTATIONS CLEAN ENERGY FROM ETHANOL A. Kowal, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs R, Adzic, Brookhaven National Laboratory M. Kopczyk, Institute of Non‐ferrous MetalCentral Laboratory ofs The possibility of obtaining electrical energy from bio‐ethanol has caused increased interest in Direct Ethanol Fuel Cells (DEFC). Currently‐available commercial platinum nano composites do not ensure complete combustion of ethanol. Two‐component catalysts containing Pt and SnOx, characterized by higher selectivity, are still not satisfactory. Catalyst which effectively oxidize ethanol and split the C‐C bond in ethanol at room temperature was prepared in 2005‐2009 [1‐ 4]. In order to improve the efficiency of high‐temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), particularly those utilizing ethanol as a fuel (ESOFC), catalysts have been researched which increase the power density of such a fuel cell. In order to find the most effective catalyst, research was conducted in the field of nano‐oxides such as SnO2, SnO2/Sb2O5, CeO2 and TiO2. The physicochemical properties of such synthesized oxides were evaluated using XRD and SEM. These oxides were then deposited on nickel foam in an external reformer, which was placed before an anode of the SOFC . It was found that a Ni/CeO2 catalyst placed in external reformer gives the highest power density of ESOFC (Ethanol Solid Oxide Fuel Cell). THE EFFECTS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN NON‐R&D SECTORS: INSIGHTS FROM ECONOMIC THEORY AND HISTORY Aashish Mehta, Center for Nanotechnology in Society ‐ UCSB Abstract: There appear to be no empirical studies of the effects of nanotechnology on non‐R&D employment opportunities.

    FINDINGMarchS 2005 inside Andrés García The Forces That Bind 3 Hilary Godwin Getting the Lead Out 9 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES National Institutes of Health National Institute of General Medical Sciences Edited by Alison Davis under contract 263-MD-409758 Produced by the Office of Communications and Public Liaison National Institute of General Medical Sciences National Institutes of Health On the Cover Photo of Andrés García: Nicole Cappello Photo of Hilary Godwin: Matthew Gilson Editor’s Note Should scientists genetically engineer grains to have extra vitamins? Is it okay for a couple to choose the sex of their baby? Should a 17-year-old girl whose aunt had breast cancer get a genetic test? No one can claim to have the “right” answer to these or countless other questions that meet at the intersection of science and society. Yet all of us should be comfortable ask­ ing them and knowing where to find more information to develop an opinion based on the available facts. Does that mean we should spend most of our free time in the library, reading scientific texts and journals? Should we become scientists or doctors? These actions are not absolutely necessary for developing a critical mind. Of course, there are a great many things to be said for reading about science and going to graduate school. But have you ever thought about spending some time doing research in a lab? It’s a fun, hands-on way to learn. If you’d like to give it a try, contact your local college or university and ask about research programs for high school students.
